Strawberry Rhubarb Chilled Salad Recipes

Steps:

• For the rhubarb simple syrup: Put the sugar in a small saucepan with 1 cup water. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar starts to dissolve, about 5 minutes. Once it reaches a simmer, add the rhubarb and reduce the heat to medium low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb is softened and the syrup turns light pink, about 25 minutes. Set the rhubarb syrup aside until cool and slightly thickened, about 30 minutes.
• For the strawberry fruit salad: Put the strawberries and blackberries in a serving bowl and drizzle generously with the rhubarb syrup. Top with the cooked rhubarb. Sprinkle with the basil and mint.

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the middle position and preheat to 325 F degrees.
• For the crust: In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, add the pretzels and sugar and process into fine crumbs. Drizzle the melted butter over top and pulse to combine. Press the mixture into a clear glass 8-by-8-inch baking dish. (Use the bottom of a dry measuring cup to pack the crumbs tightly.) Bake the crust until crisp and pulls away slightly from the sides of the pan, about 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool completely.
• For the cream cheese layer: In a large mixing bowl, add the cream cheese and sugar. Using a hand mixer, beat until creamy. Drizzle in the cream and vanilla and continue to beat on a medium speed until light, fluffy and medium-stiff peaks form. Spread over the cooled crust and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the gelatin layer. Sprinkle the gelatin over 1/2 cup cool water in a medium bowl and let bloom, about 5 minutes. Combine the rhubarb, sugar and 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan, bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook until the rhubarb is just tender, but still completely holds its shape, 1 to 2 minutes (add a minute or so more if cooking from frozen). Remove from the heat. Add the jam and rosewater. Stir to combine and thin the jam. Stir in the food coloring, if using. Pour the mixture over the bloomed gelatin and stir to completely dissolve the gelatin. Refrigerate until soft set, about 2 hours (it should look thick and syrupy).
• Once the cream cheese layer is set and the gelatin is soft set, stir the strawberries into the gelatin and spoon the gelatin mixture over the cream cheese layer and smooth the top. Refrigerate until completely set, at least 4 hours or overnight.
