I thought up a menu to make my kids happy. I think I came up with something awesome.

For every 5 g of gelatin, it will solidify 250 ml of juice. When the size of the canned pineapple is different, and there is more water, adjust the amount of gelatin. This will melt and fall apart if you leave it in a warm place, so it is smart to show it to everyone, and then proceed to split it up and serve immediately. Recipe by Asamato

Steps

1

Open the canned pineapple, and take out half (for decoration) add water to fill.
2

Take out the remaining pineapple. Transfer the water to a measuring cup, and confirm the amount of water. It should be about 400 ml.
3

Soak the gelatin in 3 tablespoons water.
4

Add 2 tablespoons of the water from Step 2 into the soaked gelatin and the sugar. Microwave at 500 W for 1 1/2 minutes. Be careful to not let it boil.
5

Add the rest of the water from Step 2 to the gelatin, and mix well. Make sure the gelatin has dissolved properly.
6

Add a slice of pineapple to the can. Pour in 80 ml of the gelatin liquid. Freeze for 15 minutes to solidify. Make sure to not let the jelly freeze.
7

Repeat Step 6. Stick it in the fridge for the last step to solidify. When taking it out, cut around the edges first with a butter knife.
8

Next, flip the can upside down on top of a plate, cut a notch into the can with a can opener, and it will slide out.
9

This is the canned pineapple I used this time. I bought a can with 10 slices for 150 yen at the bulk supermarket.
10

When serving, cut horizontally to separate each pineapple slice.

Kanten will give this a more defined shape. Use 2 g when using kanten, and dissolve it well in the pot with water. Note that kanten will solidify at room temperature.
