Fruit and Gelatin?

**Nishu** · 03-30-2011, 02:40 PM

There's a recipe somewhere in the TWG for a gelatin desert that uses regular gelatin and real fruit. Does anyone know what it is or have something similar?

I think it must be in volume iii because that's the only one I don't have.

I put fruit in my flavored gelatin (fruit cocktail or peaches in red.... or sliced fresh bananas in red... or canned mandarin oranges and crushed pineapple in orange) but I don't think this is what you're meaning. I've seen it, but don't know where. If I find it, I'll post. I wouldn't mind having it myself.

Hi,
I found this recipe in the Complete Tightwad Gazette; hope this is what you are looking for. If not let me know because I have 1-3 and the Complete book.

Thaw a qt of frozen berries and whiz it in a 5 cup size blender. Strain seeds if using blackberries. Add 2 TBSP of unflavored gelatin and 1/2 cup sugar and fill the blender with hot water.

That's it, thank you!!
