Steps:
- Place a sieve over a medium bowl. Hold an orange over the bowl, and using a paring knife, cut along the membrane on both sides of each segment. Free the segments and let them fall into the sieve. Repeat with the grapefruit. Squeeze the membranes over the bowl to extract as much juice as possible, reserving the juices in the bottom of the bowl. Place the fruit segments and fennel in a salad bowl.
- In a blender or the bowl of a small food processor, blend together the oil, basil and 3 tablespoons of the reserved juice until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour over the fruit and fennel. Add the chopped walnuts and toss until all the ingredients are coated.

Tips
- For the best flavor, use fresh citrus fruits. If you don't have fresh citrus fruits on hand, you can use bottled or canned citrus juice. Just be sure to reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe, as bottled and canned citrus juices are typically sweetened.
- If you want a smoother gelatin salad, strain the gelatin mixture through a fine-mesh sieve before pouring it into the mold.
- To make sure the gelatin salad is set properly, chill it for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- If you're using a bundt pan to mold the gelatin salad, be sure to grease the pan lightly with cooking spray before pouring in the gelatin mixture. This will help the salad to release from the pan easily.
- Once the gelatin salad is set, you can unmold it by dipping the pan briefly in warm water. Then, place a serving plate over the pan and invert it. The gelatin salad should slide out onto the plate.
- Citrus gelatin salad can be served with a variety of toppings, such as whipped cream, fruit cocktail, or chopped nuts.
Conclusion
Citrus gelatin salad is a refreshing and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its bright citrus flavor and creamy texture, citrus gelatin salad is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
