GRANDMA'S CRANBERRY-ORANGE GELATIN SALAD



Grandma's Cranberry-Orange Gelatin Salad image

My grandmother made this salad every Thanksgiving. It is delicious even without its creamy topping. This side dish is so yummy, I sometimes make it even when it's not Thanksgiving! Depending on your salad's shape, you can spread the topping in a layer over the Jell-O; or if you use a ring mold, put the topping in the center. Alternately, you could serve the topping in a bowl on the side, so it's optional.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a tart and tangy flavor that is perfect for this salad. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but thaw them before using.
  • Don't overcook the cranberries. Cranberries only need to be cooked for a few minutes until they are softened. If you overcook them, they will become tough and lose their flavor.
  • Use a good quality orange juice. The orange juice in this salad adds a bright and citrusy flavor. Use a fresh-squeezed orange juice if you can. If you don't have fresh orange juice, you can use a store-bought orange juice, but make sure it is 100% orange juice and not a blend.
  • Chill the salad before serving. This salad is best served chilled. This will help the flavors to meld together and the salad will be more refreshing.
  • Garnish with fresh mint or rosemary. Fresh mint or rosemary adds a nice pop of color and flavor to this salad.

Conclusion:

This Cranberry Orange Molded Salad is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made ahead of time.
