RED, WHITE AND BLUE PARFAIT
This was from our local paper around the 4th of July, for a holiday snack. It was easy and delicious! You could probably sub. homemade granola for the pecan sandies and it would still be great. The prep time is a guess as I don't remember how long it took.

Steps:
- Make the currant gelatin: Put currants and sugar in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, until currants are very soft, about 10 minutes.
- Put 1/3 cup cold water into a small bowl; sprinkle with gelatin. Let soften 5 minutes. Add to currant mixture; stir until gelatin has dissolved, about 5 minutes.
- Pour through a fine sieve into a bowl set in an ice-water bath, gently pressing out liquid with a spoon; discard solids. Remove from water bath, and let stand, stirring occasionally, until cool but not set. Pour 3 to 4 tablespoons currant gelatin into each of twelve 8- to 10-ounce glasses; set remaining currant gelatin aside. Refrigerate glasses until gelatin is completely set, about 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make the panna cotta: Put 1/3 cup cold water into a small bowl; sprinkle with gelatin. Let soften 5 minutes.
- Put milk, cream, and sugar into a medium saucepan; bring almost to a boil. Reduce to a simmer. Add gelatin mixture, and stir until gelatin has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Pour through a fine sieve into a bowl set in an ice-water bath. Remove from water bath; let stand, stirring occasionally, until cool but not set.
- Spoon 3 to 4 tablespoons panna cotta over currant gelatin in each glass; set remaining panna cotta aside. Refrigerate glasses until panna cotta is set, about 1 hour. Repeat with another layer of currant gelatin and panna cotta. If either mixture becomes too firm, set over a pot of simmering water until softened.
- To serve, top each parfait with blueberries and currants, dividing evenly.

Tips:
- Choose ripe and flavorful berries: Fresh, ripe berries are essential for the best flavor in your parfaits. Look for berries that are plump and brightly colored.
- Use a variety of berries: Don't be afraid to mix and match different types of berries in your parfaits. This will create a more interesting and flavorful dessert.
- Use a good quality yogurt: The yogurt you use in your parfaits is also important. Choose a yogurt that is thick and creamy, and that has a good flavor. You can use regular yogurt, Greek yogurt, or even frozen yogurt.
- Layer the parfaits carefully: When you're layering the parfaits, be sure to start with a layer of berries, followed by a layer of yogurt, and then another layer of berries. Repeat this process until the parfait glasses are full.
- Top the parfaits with whipped cream or granola: Whipped cream or granola adds a nice finishing touch to parfaits. You can also use other toppings, such as fresh fruit, chopped nuts, or chocolate chips.
Conclusion:
Red, white, and blue parfaits are a fun and easy way to celebrate Independence Day or any other patriotic holiday. They're also a delicious and healthy snack or dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a festive and patriotic treat, give these parfaits a try!
