JP dives deep into Claire from Bon Appétit 's recipe on gushers and does everything he can to make his OVERSIZED. After several trials and errors I think he did a pretty good job. You don't have to eat several gushers anymore, just make and eat one giant one!Below is how to make your own normal size gushers and a giant version.
Cut 3-1/2 pounds Green Apples into 2 inch pieces
Add to a large pot 6-1/3 Cups cold water
Simmer 30 minutes
Strain liquid and stir in 4-2/3 Cups Sugar & 3 Tbsp Lemon Juice
Boil until it passes wrinkle test then refrigerate
Cook 4 Cups any juice into medium sauce pan until it reduces to 1 Cup
Sprinkle 2 Tbsp Powdered Gelatin over 1/2 Cup Cold Water
Soften 10 minutes
Combine 1/2 Cup Apple Jelly, 1/2 Cup Reduced Fruit Juice and Gelatin in Sauce Pan dissolve over low heat
Fill molds with mixture
reserve half of the mixture to use as glue
For the giant version use a cup to create a cavity in to fill the juice into, don't worry if it bottoms out
Once the mold has chilled for a few hours remove the bowl, re-heat your reserved gelatin mixture and pour that into the cavity to seal leaving some cavity to fill with gusher center
Once they have chilled again, ensuring the gusher is still in the mold pour in your strawberry syrup into the cavity and the remaining mixture on top of the gusher, do not overflow.
Place the other half on top, this will then seal the two sides together once chilled for the last time.
Dive in and remember, take atleast 1 bite for the HELLth of it.
