I've always use a little less liquid than specified as I find veggie jelly
never sets as firmly as gelatine. I also make a point of leaving it in the
fridge until just before serving. Since I find the thought of marrow from
animal bones quite repulsive, this small difference has never bothered me!
You can buy veggie jelly sachets in Holland and Barrett; sadly mine only now
does strawberry but I know other flavours are produced. Perhaps experiment
with veggie jelly without the wine before you take the plunge...
