So you know those jello dishes that have fresh or canned fruit suspended within?
How do you go about making that?
I know, probably pretty basic, but I'm unfortunately kind of clueless...
So, when you make jello, it's the consistency of water. If you dump fruit in then, it will be all at the bottom. Not what I want... :td
So I imagine that it's a skill of partly chilling the jello and then adding fruit, but how do you know when it's partly chilled? And when you add the fruit at that point, do you just dump it on (evenly throughout of course) or do you put it in and stir it? Or will stirring it make it chunky (I imagine it might...).
Someone please walk me through making this.
