1 (3-ounce) package strawberry jello
2 cups water boiling
1 1/2 teaspoons glycerin* (optional)
1/16 teaspoon or less red paste food color**

Stirring over medium heat, bring to a boil and boil for 1 to 2 minutes or until thickened and shiny. Remove from heat. Stir in glycerin and food color. Place plastic wrap directly on surface to prevent film from forming cool.
