Ingredients

The following ingredients have 9 Servings
  • 5 cups tomato juice ((fresh or canned))
  • 1 bunch celery leaves ((top bouquet of the celery))
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • Dash freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise or bottled salad dressing

Instruction

  • Heat 2 1/2 cups of tomato juice with a bouquet of celery tops, the chopped onion, salt, lemon juice and grated rind, sugar, pepper, and the curry powder, which has been mixed with a little of the hot tomato juice. 
  • Remove from the stove and fold in the mayonnaise or salad dressing. Remove the celery tops, then whip the remaining 2 1/2 cups of tomato juice into the mixture. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
  • Pour into a baking pan or baking dish. Freeze at once.
  • Once frozen it will be very icy; instead of serving it in chunks, scrape it out of the container so that you eat pink fluffy tomato frost looking like pink snow. It's really delightful.
  • Serve with cheese bits and be sure to top with a sprig or sprinkle of parsley.
