How to Make Gigi's Strawberry Rhubarb Salad
- Combine 1 cup chopped rhubarb, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 cup sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until rhubarb is tender.
- In a large glass bowl, dissolve 1 (3-ounce) package of strawberry jello in 1 cup of boiling water.
- Add the cooked rhubarb mixture to the dissolved jello and stir until completely combined.
- Stir in 1/4 cup orange juice and 1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest.
- Refrigerate until the mixture begins to thicken and becomes syrupy (about 2-3 hours).
- Gently fold in 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries.
- Lightly oil a 1-quart mold (heart-shaped mold recommended!). Pour in the mixture and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely set.
- To unmold, run the mold under warm water for a few seconds. Invert onto a serving plate and garnish with fresh strawberries.
