How to Make Avocado Gelatin Salad
- Sprinkle 1 envelope (1 tablespoon) of unflavored gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water in a small bowl. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup of boiling water. Pour the boiling water over the bloomed gelatin and stir until completely dissolved.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (or to taste), 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion juice.
- Let the mixture cool slightly until it begins to thicken, about 10-15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mash 2 ripe avocados in a medium bowl. Gently stir in 1/2 cup sour cream and 1/4 cup mayonnaise until well combined.
- Add the cooled gelatin mixture to the avocado mixture and stir gently until fully incorporated.
- Pour the salad into a 1 1/2-quart mold or individual serving dishes.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely set and firm.
