Wedding Tapioca Salad
- 5 cups Water
- 2 cups Sugar
- 2/3 cups Minute Tapioca
- 2 teaspoons Lemon Juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1 quart Whipping Cream
- 1 cup Icing Sugar
- 2 pounds Fresh Strawberries
- Note this requires a minimum of 5 hours chill time (in two parts), so plan ahead.
- In a medium saucepan, bring the water, sugar and tapioca to a boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add lemon juice and vanilla. Cool completely, 4 hours or overnight.
- In a mixing bowl, whip the cream until fairly stiff then add icing sugar.
- Hull and slice the strawberries.
- Fold together the cooled gelatin, whipped cream and strawberries. Chill 1 hour or more before serving.
- Notes:
- 1. I like to use extra strawberries. You can also try fresh or frozen raspberries, but they will make the salad pink instead of white.
- 2. You can also substitute whipped Nutriwhip or Cool Whip whipped topping for the whipping cream if you don't mind the change in flavor.
