LAYERED RAINBOW JELLO (VINTAGE RECIPE)

Steps:

• You will be making two layers from each box of jello. Once you do the first one, you'll have the technique down.
• Use a clear Pyrex dish. The 9X14 size works great for six colors. If your dish is a little smaller, use 5 colors like I did this time.
• I use a 2-cup Pyrex measuring cup to boil my water and a second one for pouring off part of the jello.
• Put one cup of water in your Pyrex measuring cup and boil the water in your microwave. I used the two-minute setting for this.
• Carefully remove the measuring cup from the microwave and add one package of gelatin. Stir until it is completely dissolved.
• Then measure out ¾ cup of the jello into a second container. To this container, add 1/3 cup of sour cream and whisk until it is smooth.
• To the remaining jello, add 2 TB of cold water and mix.
• Pour this into a 9X13 clear baking dish and refrigerate until set.
• After 30 minutes, pull your dish out of the refrigerator and pour the sour cream mixture over the first layer.
• Place the dish back into the refrigerator for another 30 minutes to set.
• Wash your measuring cups and prepare the next layer of jello the same way you made the first layer -- one cup of solid color jello and one mixed with sour cream.
• Pour the clear jello mix over the top of the set layers. Then half an our later, add the sour cream mixture.
• Keep repeating this process until you have all the layers done.
• Cover with foil and refrigerate.

• 2. Heat the milk in a saucepan over low heat just until it reaches a lukewarm temperature. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix together 1 cup boiling water with the envelopes of plain gelatin.

RIBBON JELLO SALAD FROM MRS. B

Steps:

• For filling: Dissolve unflavored gelatin in cold water. Add milk, sour cream, sugar and vanilla. Beat well.
• Layer in 9 X 13 pan, chilling between layers.
• First layer: jello 1, prepared as directed on package.
• Second layer: 1 3/4 cup filling.
• Third layer: jello 2.
• Fourth layer 1 3/4 cup filling.
• Fifth layer: jello 3.
• Sixth layer: 1 3/4 cup filling.
• Seventh layer: jello 4.
• IMPORTANT; Let each layer set well before adding another. (Chill in refrigerator between additions.) Also, let your prepared jello cool to room temperature before layering it into the pan on top of the previous layer. When you pour a new layer in, do not pour it directly on the previous layer. The stream of liquid may be strong enough to "slice" open the layer that is there. Instead, hold a large spoon down near the pan; pour the liquid onto the spoon and let it gently cascade into the pan. The filling will probably set up before you get through all the layers. You can warm it gently to re-liquify; just be sure it is not too hot when you pour it on the previous layer.
• Yes, it is worth it.
