- 1/3 cup allulose or preferred keto sweetener

- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, until fully set.
- Unmold or cut into cubes before serving chilled.
Notes
Chef's Tip: Agar sets at room temperature once dissolved, so work quickly once it's off the heat and pour before it starts to firm in the pot. Keto Swaps: allulose replaces sugar, and agar agar keeps this dessert naturally low-carb and gelatin-free.

About This Dish
Osmanthus jelly is about as light as Chinese dessert gets — a floral, barely-sweet jelly that leans entirely on the fragrance of dried flowers steeped into the base.
