Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Don't overcook the cranberries. They should be cooked until they are just softened, but not mushy.
  • Let the cranberry mixture cool completely before adding it to the gelatin. This will help prevent the gelatin from curdling.
  • Use a clear glass bowl or mold for the salad. This will allow you to see the beautiful layers of the salad.
  • Chill the salad for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the gelatin to set properly.
