TOMATO ASPIC WITH CREAM CHEESE
CENTER
 
2 pkgs. gelatin
1 sm. onion, grated
3 or 4 whole cloves
3 tbsp. vinegar
1 tsp. salt
1 1/2 c. tomato juice
1 sm. stalk celery with leaves
Sm. bay leaf
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

Dissolve gelatin in 1/3 cup of cold water. Mix tomato juice, onion, celery, cloves and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Cook slowly for 5 minutes. Then add the seasonings. Strain and pour into dissolved gelatin. Pour into molds to cool.

If the cream cheese center is desired, fill each mold half full; allow to congeal partially, and then place a cheese ball rolled in crushed nuts in the center. Finish filling the mold with mixture. The cheese ball will be entirely covered and will be a delightful surprise!
