Old Fashioned English Summer Berry Jelly And Ice Cream Recipes

OLD-FASHIONED ENGLISH SUMMER BERRY JELLY AND ICE CREAM!

Steps:

• Place the leaf gelatine in a shallow dish and pour over just enough raspberry juice to cover the surface. Leave to soften for 5 minutes.
• Heat the remaining raspberry juice and caster sugar in a saucepan until piping hot. Mix in the softened leaf gelatine and any juice, stirring until completely dissolved and then set aside to cool.
• Halve the strawberries and mix with the other berries and soft fruits, crushing them slightly.
• Rinse 6 small jelly moulds or one large jelly mould, but do not dry as a wet mould will make it easier to remove the jelly when set.
• Distribute the fruit around the mould/s. Pour over around 300ml of the jelly juice and place in the fridge for an hour. When slightly set, pour the remaining juice into the mould and return to the fridge.
• To turn out the jelly, dip the mould/s into a bowl of hot water and run a knife around the edge of the mould. Invert them onto the serving plate/s, give them a quick shake and the jelly should slide out easily.
• Serve the jellies with vanilla ice cream or cream.

Steps:

• Cut bread into 14 (1/2-inch-thick) slices. Cut out a 3-inch round from 1 slice and put in bottom of bowl. Line side of bowl with 10 slices, overlapping them slightly.
• Bring berries, sugar, and lemon juice to a boil in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat, then simmer, stirring occasionally, until berries collapse and release their juices, about 8 minutes. Spoon fruit into a sieve set over a bowl and let drain 15 minutes. Spoon drained fruit into bread-lined bowl (reserve juices) and cover completely with remaining bread, cutting bread to fit.
• Pour juices evenly over bread, making sure all bread is saturated. Cover pudding directly with a piece of wax paper and place a 7-inch plate, upside down, on top of paper. Put a 1- to 1 1/2-pound weight (such as a large can) on plate and chill at least 8 hours.
• Remove weight, plate, and wax paper and invert platter over bowl, then invert bowl onto platter. Carefully unmold.
