Can everyone here go 24 hours, starting, say, right now, without
making
one personal comment about someone else (other than, "That's a
good-looking cat!" and the like).

Just asking.


Maybe, we should try the recipe thing. It works on RPCA
BTW, could people please snip posts so it's not necessary to keep
having to scroll down pages of stuff to read a one line sentence

If jelly is jam, what do you call the jelly you use in a trifle?

half an hour or more batting it down. I would tell her, "Honey, that

look at me and try slaying it again.

Never did eat it.

I think we call that Jell-0 or gelatin, though, come to think of it, I
bet it might be tasty to try blackberry jelly in a trifle.

I stole this recipe from Kraft foods website (I don't use blueberries
as I'm very allergic, but it's very tasty with raspberries and
strawberries), and it's good (measurements are US):

Summer Berry Trifle

1 cup boiling water
1 pkg. (8-serving size) JELL-O Brand Strawberry Flavor Gelatin
Ice cubes
1/2 cup cold water
2 cups mixed berries (raspberries, blueberries, strawberries)
1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
1-1/4 cups cold milk, divided
1 pkg. (4-serving size) JELL-O Cheesecake or Vanilla Flavor Instant
Pudding & Pie Filling
1 tub (8 oz.) COOL WHIP Strawberry Whipped Topping, thawed
1 pkg. (12 oz.) pound cake, cubed



STIR boiling water into dry gelatin in large bowl at least 2 minutes
until completely dissolved. Add enough ice to cold water to measure 1
cup. Add to gelatin; stir until ice is completely melted. Let stand
about 15 minutes or until thickened. (Spoon drawn through gelatin
leaves definite impression.) Stir in berries.
PLACE cream cheese in large bowl; beat with wire whisk until creamy.
Gradually add 1/4 cup of the milk, beating until well blended. Add
remaining 1 cup milk and dry pudding mix; beat 2 minutes or until well
blended. Gently stir in whipped topping. Set aside.
PLACE about half of the cake cubes in bottom of large serving bowl;
cover with half of the pudding mixture. Top with layers of the gelatin
mixture, remaining cake cubes and remaining pudding mixture.
Refrigerate at least 1 hour or until ready to serve. Store leftover
dessert in refrigerator.

Makes 18 servings, is a big hit at the family bar-b-ques :-)

But this isn't rpca. This group has a completely different tone and
content. It works on rpca; on this group it's only going to add more
noise and clutter.
I don't have a problem with the occasional flamefest or OT posts. But
if a recipe follows every post someone doesn't like, it will become
impossible to read.

Chicken roasted on the barbecue, so it has that flame-grilled, smoky flavour
to it. Shove a couple of whole lemons, scored so the flavour runs out of
them, up its inside, along with several cloves of garlic. Several more
cloves of garlic under the skin. Barbecue, with a roasting hood on,
maintaining the temperature at around 160C (sorry guys, you'll have to do
your own farenheit conversions!). Eat :-)

Alison I have been led to believe the American jelly doesn't translate
entirely to "jam". Rather it's like the apple jelly or qunice jelly that
your Mum used to make, which was sieved through muslin and so had no fruit
fibre left in it, but was of a jelly-like consistency, rather than jam-like.
I have no idea what they call jam - perhaps someone can enlighten us. What's
made of raspberries, sugar and water, and is spread on toast (seeds and
all)? Anyone?

Allison: From a Canadian perspective, you have it right. Jam uses the
whole fruit, seeds & all... With (of course) the exeption of stonefruits.
Jelly is strained.

Actually, if we're talking apricots, I think you'll find that one or two of
the stones are frequently left in while the jam's bubbling away. IIRC, the
pectin in the stones helps the jam set, and pectin is added to some jams for
that precise reason.

The things you learned, being a child of the 60s, watching your Mum make jam
;-)

Speaking of complaints. I have a complaint against authors who
post x-no-archive. In fact, usually, x-no-archive authors make
trouble or are covering their tracks for other similar reasons.
Anonymity is not the reason, since all you have to do is post
under a fake identity or go thru a service.

At some other time, if you have anything worthwhile to say, please
allow your posts to be archived. Many of us rely on the Usenet
archives.



Just asking.

Jell-O , Now , you've reminded me , I remember that term
I prefer strawberries to any other fruit filling and a dash of sherry
too!
