Ginger Pineapple Jello Mold


This is lovely with a nice ham dinner. don't use fresh pineapple or fresh ginger - the enzymes will prevent the gelatin from setting. and for a summer variation: i added one heaping cup of blueberries to the mix when i added the pineapple (left out the ground ginger), yummy! **and ingredients/directions slightly changed to address the consistency issue mentioned by reviewer - it should set better in a mold now!

Steps


Drain pineapple , reserving juice in a measuring cup.
Stir boiling water into gelatin in large bowl at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved.
Add ginger ale to the reserved pineapple juice making about 1 to 1 1 / 4 cup of liquid.
Stir the ground ginger into this liquid.
Stir the reserved pineapple juice , ginger ale & ginger into the jello.
Refrigerate about 1 1 / 4 hours or until slightly thickened.
Stir in pineapple.
Pour into a 5-cup mold.
Refrigerate 4 hours or until firm.
Unmold.
