Since we have oranges, raspberries, strawberries, and grapefruit, I couldn't think of a single reason why I should refrain from adding some Knox Gelatin to some water and tossing the fruit in with it, sweeten it up with some stevia and set it in the frig to chill out. Here's what my first jelled fruit recipe experiment was:
DON'T MAKE THIS JUST LIKE THIS RECIPE SAYS. IT DIDN'T TURN OUT RIGHT! I POST IT HERE AS A JUMPING POINT FOR OTHER EXPERIMENTERS ONLY!!
Gelled Fruit
Allowed amount of fruit
1 package Knox Gelatin
16-20 drops of stevia
Make the gelatin, according the the directions, squish 1/4 of the fruit so it's pulpy juice and add to the gelatin. Add stevia, chill.
It turns out that this is not as pleasant as I thought it would be. It tasted like orange flavored gelled stevia. I think, next time I give it a shot, I'll go ahead and mash all the fruit, add only 3/4 of the water, and about half the stevia. When I do that, I'll post results again. If you decide to alter it and come up with a tasty recipe, please share in the comments section!
