CLASSIC HOLIDAY RIBBON SQUARES (JELLO)
This red, white, and green jello is a classic addition to the holiday table (you can switch colors for other occasions). Recipe from "Celebrating 100 years of Jello." I speed-up the chilling time table by setting each bowl/pan over a larger bowl/pan of ice water (lots of ice). I do this with all my Jello and each stage is done in about 15-20 minutes. You need to check for required texture and not go by clock. I love making these layered desserts!

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe fruit: This will ensure the best flavor and texture in your gelatin.
- Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water before using: This will help them to soften and dissolve more easily.
- Gently heat the gelatin mixture over low heat, stirring constantly: This will help to prevent the gelatin from curdling.
- Do not boil the gelatin mixture: Boiling will cause the gelatin to lose its gelling properties.
- Allow the gelatin mixture to cool slightly before adding the fruit: This will help to prevent the fruit from sinking to the bottom of the mold.
- Pour the gelatin mixture into a mold and refrigerate until set: The setting time will vary depending on the type of gelatin used.
Conclusion:
Ribbon gelatin is a beautiful and festive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized with a variety of flavors and colors. With a little planning, you can create a ribbon gelatin that is sure to impress your guests.
