ACINI DI PEPE SALAD

Acini di pepe is the Italian word for peppercorns. Any tiny round-shaped pasta works well in this chilled fruit salad. Great in the summer, but my family asks for it every holiday. Every time I bring this to a party I get requests for the recipe.

Pasta Fruit Salad image

Steps:

  • Drain the fruit, saving the juices.
  • Combine fruit juices with sugar, salt, flour, and eggs.
  • Cook until the mixture boils, stirring often so you don't scramble the eggs; remove from heat.
  • As this cooks, cook pasta according to package directions; drain and rinse with cold water.
  • Pour the still warm cooked fruit juice over hot pasta and stir.
  • Let come to room temperature, then refrigerate overnight.
  • Remove the Cool Whip to the refrigerator to soften for the next day.
  • The next day, combine the Cool Whip and all the fruit.
  • Keeps for a week.
  • TIPS: You may want to add about 1/2 the container of Cool Whip to the fruit to start with, then add more if it's too dry.
  • You may also want to drain the fruit again right before you add it, this time NOT adding the juices to the mixture.
  • Enjoy!
