Directions
1.
Mix the gelatin and cold water in a large mixing bowl. Drain the pineapple over a large measuring cup and add enough water to the juice to measure 2 cups. Pour this mixture into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
2.
Stir the sugar and salt into the gelatin mixture, then pour in the juice mixture and stir well to combine. Stir in the vinegar and lemon juice. Put the bowl in the refrigerator to cool.
3.
When the gelatin mixture has begun to thicken, remove it from the refrigerator and blend in the grated cabbage, carrot, and apple. Pour the mixture into a ring mold and chill until firm, at least 4 hours.
4.
To make the Horseradish Sauce, simply blend the prepared horseradish and milk/cream to make 1 cup.
5.
Serve the salad with a small bowl of Horseradish Sauce on the side.
