Raspberry Jell O With Cantaloupe Recipes

RASPBERRY JELLY

Steps:

• Combine fruit and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook, partially covered, mashing occasionally with a potato masher, until fruit is very soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer mixture to a fine sieve set over a heatproof bowl; let drain without pressing on fruit, 4 hours. Strain again through sieve lined with damp cheesecloth. Measure juice; you will have 3 to 4 cups.
• In a large heavy-bottomed pot, bring juice to a boil. Add 3/4 cup sugar for each cup of juice. Add lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Return to a boil and cook, stirring frequently, 8 to 12 minutes. To test if jelly is done, dip a large metal spoon in, lift it horizontally above pot, and let mixture drip back in. Jelly is done when mixture has thickened slightly and drops of it slide together off spoon in a sheet. (Temperature should register 221 degrees on a candy thermometer.) Skim foam from top.
• Ladle jelly into clean containers, leaving 3/4 inch of headroom. Let cool completely. Cover, label, and refrigerate up to 1 month, or freeze up to 1 year.

RASPBERRY GELATIN JEWELS

RASPBERRY JELLO DESSERT

Steps:

• PREP: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. Crush the graham crackers in a blender or food processor until they are all fine crumbs. Re-blend any larger chunks. Melt butter and then set aside to cool to room temperature. (Don't add hot butter to the crumbs; it will make the crust greasy.)
• GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST: In a large bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and white sugar until combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan (no need to go up the sides, just the base). Use the bottom of a flat 1-cup measuring cup to thoroughly compress the graham cracker crumbs into a firm crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes.
• FILLING: Meanwhile, beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add in the sugar and vanilla extract and beat until combined, 1 more minute. Use a spatula to gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the mixture.
• FILLING, CONTINUED: Spread this mixture onto the completely cooled graham cracker crust. Smooth it evenly, so that none of the graham cracker crust is exposed. (Otherwise, the jell-o will seep through.) Take your time to really seal the edges here with the filling. Place in the freezer while you prepare the last layer.
• JELLO TOPPING: Bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the gelatin to a large bowl and pour the boiling water on top. Working quickly, briskly whisk until combined. Pour in the bag of frozen raspberries and stir until those are combined. Immediately (don't let this gelatin layer sit) pour it on top of the cream cheese layer and smooth it to make one even layer.
• CHILL: Cover tightly and place in the fridge until completely set, about 4-6 hours. To get 40 servings, cut rows of 8 x 5. These make small pieces, so of course, feel free to cut them larger!
• STORAGE: These bars are best within 1-2 days of making. After that the bars begin to get watery/seep out liquid. These bars do not freeze and thaw well.

CANTALOUPE JAM

Steps:

• In an 8-quart pan, combine the cantaloupe, lemon juice, sugar, and butter.
• Over med-low heat, stirring constantly, heat the mixture until the sugar is completely dissolved.
• Increase heat to med-high and bring the mixture to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly.
• Stir in the entire contents of both pectin pouches; return mixture to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly.
• Boil, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
• Remove pan from the heat; skim off any foam.
• To prevent jam from separating in the jars, allow the jam to cool for 5 minutes before filling the jars.
• Gently stir the jam every minute or so to distribute the fruit.
• Ladle the hot jam into hot jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
• Wipe jar rims and threads with a clean, damp cloth; cover with hot lids and apply screw rings.
• Process half-pint jars in a 200°F water bath for 10 minutes; pint jars for 15 minutes.

• 2. Stir in 1 cup of ice-cold water. Gently stir in the raspberries.
• 3. With a soup ladle, divide the mixture between 4 wine glasses or small dessert bowls. Refrigerate for 4 hours to set.

RASPBERRY JELL-O WITH CANTALOUPE

Steps:

• 2. Equally pour into 4 (4-oz.) serving size bowls. Then place bowls in refrigerator so gelatin has set up. Then serve.

SURE.JELL RED RASPBERRY JELLY

Steps:

• Bring boiling-water canner, half full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain jars well before filling.
• Crush raspberries thoroughly, one layer at a time. Place three layers of damp cheesecloth or a jelly bag in large bowl. Pour prepared fruit into cheesecloth. Tie cheesecloth closed; hang and let drip into bowl until dripping stops. Press gently. Measure exactly 4 cups 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 and boil exactly 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
• Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. 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 middles of lids with finger. (If lids spring back, lids are not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)
