Cool Culinary Tips -Tips on handling gelatin

• For properly set gelatin mixtures, gelatin must be dissolved completely in hot liquid such as water or milk in a bowl or saucepan. No visible bits of gelatin should remain in the mixture or they will spoil its clarity and smoothness.
• To turn out gelatin desserts on to serving platter, dip mold into warm water (just to the rim) for 10 seconds.
  Be careful not to melt the dessert.
• Before inverting platter on top of mold, moisten platter first so that if dessert comes out off-center on the platter, it can be moved easily to the center.
