Steps:
- Combine the sugar, star anise, cinnamon sticks, and 1 1/4 cups water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer, and cook 5 minutes. Remove from heat; allow syrup to cool.
- Using a paring knife, carefully remove peel, pith, and outer membranes from all citrus. Carefully slice each segment of pulp from the membranes into a sieve set over a large bowl. Transfer segments to another bowl, removing any seeds and being careful not to break segments. Set the citrus segments aside; reserve juice for another use.
- Strain cooled syrup into a medium bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over syrup; allow to dissolve, 2 minutes. Return to saucepan; place over low heat, stirring, until gelatin has fully dissolved. Remove from heat; set aside to cool.
- Coat a 4 1/2-by-9-inch loaf pan or 5-cup mold with cooking spray; line with plastic, allowing 6 inches to overhang on all sides. Fill pan with reserved citrus segments. Pressing firmly on fruit, tilt the pan, draining excess juice. Pour gelatin mixture over fruit, poking with a skewer so mixture runs into the corners. Carefully fold excess plastic over top, and chill until set, 6 hours or overnight.
- To serve, unfold plastic; place a platter on top. Carefully invert both; remove pan, holding plastic in place on platter. Remove the plastic. Slice; serve with lemon sorbet.

TEACHERMAN'S CITRUS-BERRY TERRINE
This is my variation of a French gelee that uses unflavored gelatin. This makes a spring/summer brunch super classy. Be prepared: The gelatin mixture needs to chill about 1 1/2 hours and the terrine for at least 4 hours, although I make it the night before.

Steps:
- 1. Put a double layer of paper towels on a cutting board and spread the citrus pieces out on the paper and cover with another double layer. Change when paper gets soaked.
- 2. Put cold water in large bowl, sprinkle in the gelatin, and let it soften.
- 3. Bring juice and sugar to boil in medium saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Pour juice over gelatin and stir to dissolve. Put in refrigerator and let chill, stir occasionally until slightly thickened, similar to texture of egg whites, about 1 1/2 hours.
- 4. Rinse a 9 x 5" loaf pan with water and shake out excess. Gently stir citrus and berries into the gelatin mixture and scrape all into the pan. Gently push gel down evenly into pan. Chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
- 5. When ready to serve, dip the pan into a sinkful of hot water for a minute and run a knife around outside of pan. Unmold the terrine onto a platter, and get ready for the compliments!
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before starting, ensure all ingredients and equipment are prepped and measured. This will make the process smoother and more efficient.
- Zest the citrus fruits finely: Use a microplane or fine grater to zest the citrus fruits. This will release their aromatic oils and give the terrine a bright citrus flavor.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, and mint add a burst of flavor to the terrine. If using dried herbs, use about 1/3 of the amount.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough terrine. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake in a water bath: Baking the terrine in a water bath helps to create a moist and evenly cooked terrine. It also prevents the terrine from cracking.
- Chill thoroughly before serving: The terrine needs to be chilled for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the terrine to set.
