How to Make Texas Ruby-Red Grapefruit Pie
- When sectioning grapefruit with a shape knife, be sure to remove all the membrane. Cut each slice in half and drain in a strainer or colander.
- Cook sugar, water, cornstarch, and salt until thickened and clear. Add Jello and stir until dissolved. Pour into a flat dish and chill until mixture begins to set., about 25 minutes.
- Add grapefruit, mix, and pour into cooled pie shell. Chill for at least two hours before serving.
- To serve, top each serving with whipped cream, or pipe a decorative border of whipped cream on pie then slice and serve.
