WINE JELLY
Pies, Cakes and Desserts
Ingredients
- Fleda W. Harris (Nana)
- 2 envelopes gelatin
- 1 cup cold water
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 cup sherry, port or madeira
- juice of 1 lemon
- whipped cream (optional)
Directions
Soak gelatin in cold water. Dissolve sugar and gelatin mixture in boiling water.
Add wine and strained lemon juice. Pour into molds or bowl and chill. (I have found Taylor's Dry Sherry and Taylor's Tawny Port are very good for this.)
Fleda's recipe adds 1/4 teaspoon salt.
I add a drop of food coloring for color. I also serve with custard instead of whipped cream. Traditional for Christmas.
