Cranberry Pomegranate Gelatin Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1 cup fruit juice in small saucepan until it just simmers, do not cook for any length of time.
• Turn off heat and stir in sugar, if using.
• Place remaining 1 cup cold juice in a medium bowl and sprinkle with gelatin, stir, let sit for 2 minutes and stir again.
• Add warm juice to cold juice, stir, and pour mixture into an 8 x 8-inch pan.
• Refrigerate until firm (about 4 hours), and cut into cubes.

Steps:

• Place 1/2 cup of the pomegranate juice into a medium mixing bowl and sprinkle the gelatin on top. Set aside.
• Place the remaining juice and the sugar into a small saucepan and place over high heat. Bring just to a boil. Remove from the heat and add to the juice and gelatin mixture, stirring to combine. Place the bowl into the refrigerator and chill, just until the mixture begins to set up, approximately 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from the refrigerator and stir in the seeds. Place into a 2 cup mold of your choice or 4 1/2 cup individual molds and chill until set.

Steps:

• Make the pomegranate gelatin: Place a 5-cup mold in the refrigerator to chill. In a saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup pomegranate juice, and let soften 5 minutes. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring, just until gelatin is dissolved; do not let boil. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Stir in remaining 1 cup pomegranate juice, then pour into chilled mold. Skim off foam from surface, and refrigerate until partially set, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the cranberry gelatin: In a saucepan, simmer cranberries, sugar, and 1 2/3 cups water until berries have burst and mixture has thickened slightly, about 15 minutes. Strain through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible, and scraping pulp from bottom of sieve into liquid. Discard solids. You should have about 1 3/4 cups liquid.
• In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over remaining 1/4 cup cold water, and let soften 5 minutes. Add about 1/2 cup of strained cranberry liquid to softened gelatin, and cook over medium heat, stirring, until gelatin is dissolved; do not let boil. Let cool completely, then stir gelatin mixture into remaining cranberry liquid in a bowl.
• To assemble: Cut peel and pith from clementines, then cut segments free from membranes. Gently blot segments dry with paper towels. Press half of clementine segments into pomegranate layer, and gently pour cranberry gelatin on top. Refrigerate until cranberry gelatin is almost set, about 1 hour.
• Make the cranberry sauce: In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 3 tablespoons orange juice, and set aside to soften.
• Bring remaining orange juice, the cinnamon stick, sugar, and lemon peel to a simmer in a large saucepan. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Add cranberries and cook, stirring occasionally, until berries have burst and mixture has thickened slightly, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat, and add gelatin mixture, stirring to dissolve. Transfer cranberry sauce to a bowl to cool.
• Press remaining clementine segments into cranberry gelatin and gently top with cranberry sauce, spreading evenly in mold. Cover mold and refrigerate 1 day, or up to 3 days.
• To serve, dip bottom of mold in a bowl of hot water 10 to 20 seconds, then invert onto a cake stand or serving plate, and carefully remove mold.

Steps:

• Pulse the cranberries and 1/4 cup sugar in a food processor until chunky and juicy, about 8 times. Set aside for 20 minutes to macerate.
• Meanwhile, combine the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, 1 1/2 cups pomegranate juice, the cinnamon stick, peppercorns, orange peel and a pinch of salt in a saucepan over medium heat; simmer, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat; let steep for 20 minutes. Discard the cinnamon, peppercorns and orange peel.
• Place the remaining 1/2 cup pomegranate juice and 1/4 cup cold water in a bowl and sprinkle the gelatin on top. Set aside without stirring until the gelatin softens, about 5 minutes. Add the steeped pomegranate juice to the gelatin mixture and stir until the gelatin dissolves.
• Spread a thin layer of the cranberry mixture in a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan; pour in enough of the pomegranate-gelatin mixture to cover (about 3/4 cup). Refrigerate until just beginning to set, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, stir the remaining cranberries into the remaining gelatin mixture and set aside, unrefrigerated. Once the bottom layer is set, pour in the remaining gelatin mixture and refrigerate until completely set, at least 2 hours or overnight.
• To serve, run a knife around the edges of the pan and invert the terrine onto a platter. (Set the pan in warm water to soften the gelatin if necessary.) Garnish with the orange zest.

Steps:

• Stir boiling water into combined dry gelatin mix and spices in 1-qt. bowl at least 2 min. until gelatin is completely dissolved. Stir in cold water and juice. Remove 1-1/2 cups of the gelatin; place in medium bowl. Set aside. Refrigerate remaining gelatin 1-1/2 hours or until thickened (spoon drawn through leaves definite impression). Meanwhile, let reserved gelatin stand at room temperature 45 min., then refrigerate 1-1/4 hours or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites).
• Add oranges to thickened gelatin in 1-qt. bowl; stir gently. Spoon into 7-cup mold sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate 30 min. or until gelatin is set but not firm (gelatin should stick to finger when touched and should mound). Add whipped topping to slightly thickened gelatin; stir with wire whisk until well blended. Spoon over gelatin layer in mold.
• Refrigerate 4 hours or until firm. Unmold. Garnish as desired. Store leftover gelatin in refrigerator.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Add cold water; stir. Add the pomegranate seeds, cranberry sauce, pineapple and pecans. Pour into a 1-1/2-qt. serving bowl. Refrigerate for 4-5 hours or until firm. If desired, top with whipped topping and additional pecans.

Steps:

• Sprinkle unflavored gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water; let stand for 5 minutes. In a bowl, dissolve softened gelatin and cranberry gelatin in boiling water. Stir in cranberry sauce until blended. Add the cinnamon, ginger, salt and remaining cold water. Cover and refrigerate until almost set. Fold in apples and walnuts. Pour into an ungreased 2-1/2-qt. serving bowl. Refrigerate until firm.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over 1 cup cranberry juice. Set aside to soften, 5 minutes. Place over low heat until gelatin has dissolved, 4 to 5 minutes. Add sugar; stir gently until dissolved (rub mixture between your fingers to make sure it's smooth), 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Transfer gelatin mixture to a medium bowl; stir in orange juice and remaining 2 cups cranberry juice. Skim any foam from surface, and refrigerate until just thick enough to hold a line drawn by your finger, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Arrange orange segments in the bottom of a 1 1/2- to 2-quart gelatin mold or Bundt pan; pour gelatin mixture over oranges. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
• To unmold, dip bottom of mold briefly in hot water, invert onto a plate, and shake firmly to release.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the cranberries, orange, sugar and honey. Cook and stir over medium heat for 15-20 minutes or until berries pop and mixture is thickened. Stir in pomegranate seeds; cook 2 minutes longer. , Remove from the heat; stir in walnuts and orange zest. Serve warm or chilled.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over 1 cup cold water; let soften, 5 minutes. Place over low heat, and cook until gelatin has dissolved, 3 to 4 minutes. (When rubbed between your fingers, it should feel smooth.) Add sugar, stirring gently until dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes; remove from heat.
• Transfer gelatin mixture to a medium bowl; gradually stir in juices. Pour into a 1 1/2-quart (6-cup) Bundt pan, and skim any foam from surface. Refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours and up to 1 day.
• To unmold, dip bottom of pan (do not submerge) briefly into hot water; invert onto a serving platter, and shake firmly to release. Serve.

Steps:

• Peel and core apples, and put peelings and cores in a small saucepan with pomegranate seeds, 1/2 cup juice, and 1/2 cup sugar. Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to simmer. Cook for 30 minutes.
• Chop the peeled apples, and place in a large saucepan. Remove zest from half of one orange, chop very fine, and add to apples. Peel oranges, chop coarsely, and add to pan along with cranberries and remaining juice and sugar. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, and cook for 30 minutes.
• Remove small pan from heat, and strain juice into larger pan. Cool solids slightly, and then push though a sieve to remove seeds and peels, adding remaining pulp to larger pan. Stir in nuts, if desired. Cook about 10 minutes longer. Serve warm, room temperature, or chilled.

Steps:

• Prepare gelatine as per manufacturers instructions.
• Pour the cranberry juice into a pan and stir in the sugar. Heat the juice, but just before it comes to the boil remove from the heat. Allow to cool for 2 minutes.
• Add the gelatine to the hot cranberry mixture and stir to dissolve. Pour into 4 glasses, then sprinkle in the pomegranate seeds and any juice. They tend to float, making a layer at the top of each glass.
• Allow the jellies to cool, then chill for at least an hour or until ready to serve. TIP: rest the glasses at an angle in the fridge to set at a slant.
• Pour the evaporated milk into a jug and allow your guests to mix it into their jelly at the table.
