Wine Jelly

  • 1 package gelatine
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 3 cups sugar
  • Juice of 3 lemons
  • Grated rind of 1 lemon
  • 1 quart boiling water
  • 1 pint sherry wine
  • Srawberries or raspberries or
  • any fresh fruit in season
Soak the gelatine in cold water for 2 hours. Then add the sugar, lemon juice and lemon rind. Pour over this the boiling water and stir until dissolved, then add sherry wine. Strain through a napkin, turn into molds dipped in cold water and place in refrigerator for several hours.

One good way to mold this jelly is to pour some of it into the mold, harden it a little, put in a layer of strawberries or raspberries, or any fresh fruit in season, and pour in jelly to set them. After they have set, another layer of jelly, then another of berries, and so fill each mold, alternating between jelly and berries.
