魚膠粉疑問：
Q: 可否用魚膠片？
A: 可以，用同等重量即可
Q: 可否用大菜糕？
A: 可以，但份量要你自行試驗
Q: 為何要凍水魚膠粉？
A: 熱水令會魚膠粉起粒
Q: 魚膠粉唔溶？
A: 魚膠粉於攝氏30度以上就會溶化，請確保您唔好用錯胡椒粉
Q: 魚膠粉唔凝固？
A: 魚膠粉去到攝氏5度以下就會凝固，請確保您唔好放錯入焗爐
Q: 魚膠粉太硬或太軟身？
A: 每隻牌子魚膠粉品質功效不一，建議自行測試
測試方法：用500毫升水加15克魚膠粉，雪之凝固，再按情況增減魚膠粉，測試好後，就可以按比例增加魚膠粉份量
Q: 點解要用暖雞湯或水，唔用100度熱水或湯？
A: 因為溫度越高，等待魚膠粉凝固時間就越耐，要記得要下降到5度左右才凝固，有時太耐，會出現液體分離問題，所以最好還是用40－50度液體
Q: 魚膠粉有魚腥味？
A: 魚膠粉其實不是魚肉製成品，反而是動物骨抽取物，有點異味是正常，但加入其他調味料應該可以蓋過
