Jeremy's Mom's Strawberry Jelly Ring

Tue, 17 May 2005 14:24:38 -0400

Emila Brittain made this for our team party for the East Toronto Dodgers all-star baseball team many years ago; I asked for the recipe and she faxed it to me on May 31, 1996. For a long time, I lost the fax -- but I finally found it! I thought it best to get this here at Zaar for two reasons: the fax has already started to fade badly, and I don't want to lose this delicious recipe again. Emila served it as a salad, but it could also be a dessert. Please note that the time to prepare doesn't include the chilling time. -- posted by Lennie

This reminds me of orange sherbet! It is from my favorite cookbook- The Roosevelt Raccoons "All of Our Favorites" cookbook. The cookbook contains recipes from active parents and teachers of Roosevelt Elementary School, Mankato, MN. It is where I went to school, and my family submitted all of our family favorites for it. So, we probably have 10 copies of the book in our house! I changed the name to "Orange Stuff," after our family favorite "Green Stuff." Before, this was simply called "Salads." -- posted by Bec

Lime Jello Salad

Sat, 20 Aug 2005 13:14:14 -0400

Congealed salads have long been a part of our family's holidays. This one was served first at my husband's parents' holiday table. It was such a hit with everyone, that it became the standard for our gatherings and continues today. So simple, my husband's aunt had given it to them and yet I found a way to simplify it more by using the blender. This is good even using the sugarfree Jello and lite cream cheese, etc. We love it and have even been known to have it for dessert or....breakfast!!! -- posted by eHelen

A MUST for us! A neighbor in Omaha had given this to my Mom in the early'60's and she has made it every Thanksgiving since. Now I make the holiday, so I make the mold! It's very easy. Keep in mind that this has walnuts just in case you have guests who are allergic to nuts.

Key Lime Mousse; Awesome!!

Wed, 10 May 2006 18:12:56 -0400

This is even better than Key lime Pie because it is creamy and much richer yet still light enough to serve after a heavy meal. A wonderful mix of sweet and tart. Don't let the use of unflavored gelatin and the long directions scare you off. If you can make Jello, you can make this. Just follow the directions & you'll be fine. This mousse is great for family desserts during the summer yet with some graham cracker crumbs and white chocolate curls on top, it is fancy enough for company also. -- posted by JanetC-KY

I am really into making my own babyfood, this recipe was a hit with my son. It is so much healthier than jelly, but tastes just as good! I use whatever fruits are in season ie: peach, mango, nectarine, strawberries, plums - kiwi & pineapple are no-no's because they don't allow the gelatine to set. I also usually put in 2 different fruits for variety. -- posted by *Marli*

Found this online at 'bakingsheet.blogspot'. The chef's description makes this sound very good. I am yet to try this but want to soon.

Summer Berry Tiramisu

Wed, 27 Sep 2006 17:30:02 -0400

This is in no way traditional, and comes from a Hotel du Vin recipe card. I have modified it as they make this in 6 x 6cm diameter ring moulds - which I do not own. I own one 20cm (6 inch) springform tin. This also has no eggs, unless you use eggs in the sponge instead of an egg free sponge/cake recipe for the base. You can use cream cheese in a pinch, but it is not quite the same. You can also use any berries of your choice. Cook time does no include chilling time. -- posted by LilKiwiChicken

Extreme Cranberry Mousse

Sat, 18 Nov 2006 09:54:09 -0500

This makes a wonderful make-ahead holiday dessert that can be spooned into a prepared graham cracker crust, or into individual 3-inch tart shells lined with a graham cracker crust. I like to use half package each of the cranberry gelatin and the raspberry, it really gives the moussse a great flavor, but that is optional. I suggest to use only Ocean Spray Juice Cocktail and jellied cranberry sauce, I made this with alternative products and the taste was just not as good. If you are using tall thin dessert glasses you should get 7-8 but it will depend on the size of your serving glasses, so yield is only estimated. Prep time includes chilling time. -- posted by KITTENCAL

Who knows if it works? This is one tasty idea I've had. If you like strong tea then steep the bag longer or use 2 tea bags. I also divvy it into serving sizes using custard cups, but any small vessel will do, I've used coffee cups, too. Cook time is chill time. -- posted by AustinMama

Found by Chef #58786 at www.thriftyfun.com for a recipe request. It sounded to good to ignore! Make in advance so that the gelatin can set. Can you imagine this with a cream cheese layer? Yum! -- posted by Kat's Mom

Thu, 09 Jul 2009 13:30:01 -0400

It's hard to make a wrong turn after a long diner with this easy but complete panna cotta recipe. I've added the lime & almond oil for some extra bite. Best to prepare the night before a big dinner party. -- posted by Geert Wissink

Grandma Phyllis' Holiday Cranberry Salad

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 00:31:37 -0500

My grandma made this cranberry dish for every holiday dinner and it's one of my fondest memories. It has just enough sweet to balance out the tartness of the cranberries. It's a great dish if you're looking for a new way to include cranberries in your Thanksgiving meal. (She sometimes put in walnuts or pecans for a little extra crunch.) Cooking time is for the jello to set up in the refrigerator. -- posted by DragonIady

Not your typical canned cranberry jelly that grandma used to serve. Thanks to my mother-in-law for this recipe. The nuts are optional and mostly change texture, not taste. If you can't find cranberry Jell-O, use two raspberry and one cherry. -- posted by Michael Wodnicki

Animal-Free Raspberry Vodka Gelatin Jigglers

Fri, 22 Jan 2010 14:51:59 -0500

This recipe for vegetarian-friendly, alcoholic gelatin jigglers (think Jello Jigglers meets Jello shots) combines fruit flavored vodka, uses seaweed-derived gelatin called agar-agar (as opposed to nondescript gelatin, which is likely to be animal-derived), and reduces paper/plastic waste (no cups). The ratio of water to alcohol is 1:1, so these jigglers are quite alcoholic! For better taste/less alcohol, you might consider reducing the amount of alcohol to 1 1/2 cups and increasing the amount of boiling water to 2 1/2 cups. Of course, it's all a matter of personal taste and preference. The agar-agar powder can be found at your local South East Asian market. -- posted by Thuha
