Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Refreshing Lime Gelatin Salad.
Step 1
Begin by combining the lime gelatin mix with 3/4 cup of boiling water in a mixing bowl, stirring until fully dissolved.
Step 2
Add a pinch of salt, then incorporate 3/4 cup of cold water.
Step 3
Set the bowl aside and let the mixture chill for about 30 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
Step 4
While the gelatin cools, prepare an 8-inch mold by spraying it generously with nonstick cooking spray to ensure easy release later.
Step 5
Once the gelatin has reached the right consistency, gently fold in the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, and chopped walnuts, mixing until everything is well blended.
Step 6
Transfer this vibrant mixture into your prepared mold and place it in the refrigerator, allowing it to firm up for anywhere between 1 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours.
Step 7
When you're ready to serve, loosen the salad by briefly submerging the mold in a sink filled with hot water.
Step 8
After a few seconds, remove it from the water, position a serving plate on top, and carefully flip it over to unveil your beautiful salad creation.
Step 9
Enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and textures that make this dish a standout at any gathering!.
