RUBY RED LAYERED SALAD



Ruby Red Layered Salad image

This is another Jello salad but one that I must make for Thanksgiving and Christmas or anytime that we have roast turkey. I going to provide the recipe as I found it. But as we are diabetic, I make the cranberry sauce from scratch so that I can control the sugar and I use sugar free jello as well. I only posting so that I do not lose the recipe, I got the recipe from the internet some years ago so I can not tell you what site the recipe came from for sure. I also did not copy the serving sizes and how much the recipe makes so I have guessed from my own experience. If I am off greatly, I am sorry.

  • 2) Spread sour cream over firm Jello.
  • 3) In another bowl, dissolve cherry Jello in one cup boiling water. Stir in crushed pineapple ( drained) and cranberry sauce. Chill 20 to 40 minutes until only partially set, Spoon cherry mixture over the sour cream layer in the first bowl and chill for another hour or two.

Tips:

  • Utilize Fresh, Top-Quality Berries: Select ruby red raspberries that are plump, ripe, and free of blemishes. Fresh berries contribute to the salad's vibrant color and exquisite flavor.
  • Delicately Handle Berries: Treat raspberries gently to avoid bruising them. Rinse them carefully under cool water and pat them dry with paper towels.
  • Enhance Raspberry Flavor: Before adding raspberries to the salad, toss them with some granulated sugar or honey. This helps draw out their natural sweetness and intensify their flavor.
  • Balance Flavors: Create a harmonious balance of flavors by incorporating sweet, tart, and tangy elements. Sweet berries, tangy dressing, and a hint of citrus zest contribute to a delightful taste experience.
  • Chill Before Serving: Refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the dressing to set, resulting in a more flavorful and refreshing salad.

Conclusion:

Ruby red raspberry salad is a delightful combination of sweet, juicy berries, crunchy nuts, creamy cheese, and a tangy dressing. It's a vibrant and refreshing salad perfect for summer gatherings, potlucks, or as a light and healthy meal.
