We try lots of cranberry recipes, and this one is always requested when we have family get-togethers at Thanksgiving and Christmas. It's also been a favorite dish at every church potluck I've taken it to! Ingredients:
1 envelope unflavored gelatin |
1-1/2 cups cold water, divided |
4 cups (16 ounces) fresh or frozen cranberries |
1-1/2 cups sugar |
1-1/2 cups dry red wine or cranberry juice |
1 package (6 ounces) lemon gelatin |
1-1/2 cups diced celery |
3/4 cup chopped walnuts |
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream |
3/4 cup mayonnaise |
celery leaves |
Directions:
1. Soften unflavored gelatin in 1/2 cup water; set aside. In 3-qt. saucepan, combine cranberries, sugar and wine or cranberry juice; heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Add lemon gelatin and softened unflavored gelatin; stir until dissolved. Stir in remaining water. Chill until mixture is partially set. Fold in celery and walnuts. Pour into greased 8-cup mold; cover and chill until set. Meanwhile, combine sour cream and mayonnaise; refrigerate until ready to serve. To serve, unmold gelatin and top each serving with dollop of dressing. Garnish with celery leaves. Yield: 10-12 servings.
