Va- IN ALL THOSE LUSCIOUS FLAVORS
nil i n
Add a touch of creative imagination . . .
increase your total number of recipes
merely by using a different flavored
gelatin in many of these recipes.
Pretty, delicious, and inexpensive, molded gelatin salads
and desserts of infinite variety are fun to make and serve
if you follow these simple techniques:
Oil molds with flavorless salad or cooking oil (not olive oil) ;
invert to drain thoroughly.
Dissolve flavored gelatin in very hot liquid.
Chill gelatin mixtures until of desired consistency either in
the refrigerator, stirring occasionally, or over ice and water,
stirring frequently, before adding any solid ingredients,
such as fruits or nuts. Chill clear gelatin mixtures until
slightly thicker than consistency of thick, unbeaten egg
white. When mixtures are not clear (because of ingredients
already added, such as mayonnaise), chill until they thicken
and begin to gel.
Prevent separation of layered molds by chiHing mixtures for
both layers to nearly the same consistency before combin
ing in the mold.
Chill all gelatin molds until firm.
Unmold by running tip of knife around top edge to loosen
and admit air. Invert mold onto chilled serving plate. If
mold does not loosen, wet a clean towel in hot water and
wring it almost dry; wrap it around the mold for a few
seconds. Repeat, if necessary, until mold can be lifted off.
Whip cream (using chilled bowl and beater), before blend
ing into a gelatin mixture, until it piles softly but does not
form peaks.
