Before pouring the jellied meat into molds, you need to check whether it will harden or not.
How to do this was explained by Yulia Arkhipova, an expert in the field of cooking for the online publication Belnovosti, a cook and fourth-class baker.
How to check if the aspic has set
First, you can rub a drop of broth between your fingers. If they stick together, the aspic will harden.
Secondly, you can pour two spoons of cooled broth into a bowl and put it in the refrigerator.
If it hardens, you can pour it, if not, you will have to add gelatin.
To ensure that the aspic hardens evenly, it should be poured into shallow moulds with a flat bottom.
To turn the aspic over before serving, dip the pan into hot water for a few seconds.
Earlier, the expert told how to properly defrost meat.
