The very idea. I’m hurt. There’s no gelatin in it, just condensed milk, yolks, grapefruit juice, zest/oil of grapefruit, salt, citric acid and a drop of pink food coloring. I had to add the coloring, because otherwise it was an unappealing fleshy tan that clashed with the gorgeous natural magenta of the bruleed grapefruit supremes. I wrote you out the recipe on some other blog site–I’m new to this, but let me know if you got it.

1) it was definitely creamy in a dairy way, but definitely had some gelatin. It was firmer than just a cornstarch/egg mixture.

2) Opaque.

3) Quite firm. No outer crust, just bottom crust, and was thick enough to stand straight up- no gloppiness, no drippiness. Again, I’m thinking gelatin.

I’m pretty sure flavorless gelatin was used, but the flavor was all natural- intensely pink grapefruit. If another citrus (like blood orange) was used, I couldn’t tell.

Thanks for your comments everyone!

JON: Nice meeting you as well. Hope to see you at Z next time!!!

1. was it creamy in a dairy or non-dairy way?

2. was it opaque or translucent?

3. how thick was it?

here’s what i am guessing, just to guess:

1. the grapefruit juice was combined with blood orange juice for both flavour and colour.

2. it was juice, sugar, and some sort of thickening agent like cornstarch, arrowroot, or tapioca cooked together.

3. it was a grapefruit curd made with juice, sugar, eggs, and just a touch of butter.

4. it was made with grapefruit juice mixed with strawberry juice and gelatin. and whipped cream. if creamy. or god forbid, grapefruit juice and strawberry jello, with non-dairy whipped topping like they do in texas.

any of those sound possible?
