FRESH HOMEMADE STRAWBERRY JELLO



Fresh Homemade Strawberry Jello image

Jell-O always seems a bit like magic to me. Add water to the brightly colored, sugary powder and in no time it's solid and giggles like a good belly laugh. The problem is, the stuff in the box tastes like congealed, watered-down kool-aid. There is no actual fruit involved, just artificial color and flavor. But, it is so easy and fun to create a fresh fruit version. There is really nothing better, and more summery, than the taste of fresh strawberries. Take those gorgeous strawberries, puree them and add just enough gelatin to set the fruit in a fancy mold. Knowing how to work with unflavored gelatin properly means you can set a liquid, without having it bounce like a rubber ball. You want to use just enough to keep its shape, but still have a smooth, luscious feel. It's fun, all-natural and a festive treat for your summer picnics.

Time 4h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/2 pounds strawberries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup, plus 2 tablespoons sugar
3 packets unflavored gelatin, such as Knox (for a vegetarian alternative try using agar-agar)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a saucepan cook the strawberries and 1 cup sugar over medium-low heat. If you are using fresh strawberries you may need to add 2 tablespoons of water. Cook until the fruit is softened. Frozen and VERY ripe fruit will cook faster.
  • Use a regular or immersion hand blender to puree the fruit. Strain the seeds and return to the pot. Using a chinoise strainer will make the job go much faster.
  • In a small bowl, pour the 3 packets of gelatin over 1/2 cup of water, making sure no dry powder remains. Let the gelatin sit until it "blooms" and absorbs all the water.
  • Heat the strained puree to a simmer, turn off the heat and add the bloomed gelatin. Stir until the gelatin is melted and evenly distributed in the puree.
  • Choose a mold that fits at least 5 cups. I used a silicone mold, such as the Lekue Imperial Monarch Mold.
  • Fill the mold with 3/4 of the puree. Set the mold in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or until a skin is formed on the top.
  • Pour half the remaining puree into a bowl. Whip the heavy cream with 2 tablespoons sugar and add it to the puree in the bowl.
  • Gently fold the cream into the puree.
  • Add the cream/puree mixture to the mold, refrigerate for about 15 minutes, or until it has set slightly. Add the remaining strawberry puree to the top. Set in the refrigerator for about 3 hours or until well set.
  • To un-mold the jello: fill a large vessel with hot water.
  • Dip the jello into the hot water, being careful not to get water over the lip of the mold. You may need to use a knife to carefully separate the edge of the mold from the jello. Let the mold sit in the water for 15 to 30 seconds. Set the jello on a platter.
  • Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Use a thin bladed knife dipped in hot water to cut the jello.

Tie cheesecloth closed; hang and let drip into bowl until dripping stops. Press gently. Measure exactly 3-3/4 cups prepared juice into 6- or 8-qt. saucepot.
  • Stir pectin into juice in saucepot. Add butter to reduce foaming. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in sugar. Return to full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Boil exactly 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.

Lower rack into canner. (Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches. Add boiling water, if necessary.) Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 5 min. Remove jars and place upright on a towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middle of lid with finger. (If lid springs back, lid is not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)

STRAWBERRY JELLO BALLS RECIPE



Strawberry Jello Balls Recipe image

Provided by Tinkysmom55

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 small package coconut (7 oz.)
1 family sized strawberry Jello or any flavor
2 cups chopped nuts, optional
1 can sweetened condensed milk

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients together except 1/2 package of jello and leave a little coconut to roll cookies in. Refrigerate mixture for 2 hours. Form jello mixture into small balls or desired size. Roll balls in remaining package of jello and then roll in coconut.

Tips:

  • Use fresh strawberries. Fresh strawberries will give your Jell-O balls a more intense flavor than frozen or canned strawberries.
  • Hull the strawberries before slicing them. This will remove the tough core from the strawberries and make them easier to slice.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the strawberries. This will help you get clean, even slices.
  • Do not overcook the Jell-O mixture. Overcooking the Jell-O mixture will make it tough and rubbery.
  • Chill the Jell-O balls for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the Jell-O balls to set properly.
  • Serve the Jell-O balls with your favorite toppings. Popular toppings include whipped cream, fruit, and nuts.

Conclusion:

Strawberry Jell-O balls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up fresh strawberries, and they are also a fun and festive way to serve Jell-O. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect Strawberry Jell-O balls every time.
