  • last year
When you think of gelatin, you may picture sweet jello flavors like strawberry, cherry, or lemon-lime. But you can also use this intriguing ingredient to prepare a savory dish known as an aspic, which is simply a savory take on jello. In this video, chef Alexis deBoschnek tries to recreate a retro Tomato Aspic recipe from a vintage edition of the Better Homes & Gardens New Cook Book. While its ingredients seem to resemble those of a Bloody Mary, the bouncy texture of this dish is totally different from that of the beloved cocktail – or most renditions of tomato for that matter. How does this vintage recipe stand up to our modern-day taste buds?
