A delightful shrimp dip with a creamy texture and a hint of crunch from fresh vegetables.
Dissolve the gelatin in warm water until fully dissolved.
Ensure the water is warm but not boiling to dissolve the gelatin effectively.
Mix the softened cream cheese and mayonnaise until smooth.
Use a hand mixer for a smoother consistency.
Add the dissolved gelatin to the cream cheese mixture and blend well.
Pour the gelatin slowly while mixing to avoid lumps.
Fold in the shrimp, celery, onion, and lemon juice.
Gently fold to maintain the texture of the shrimp.
Pour the mixture into a greased mold and refrigerate until set.
Grease the mold lightly to make unmolding easier.
Unmold the dip onto a serving plate and serve with crackers or vegetable sticks.
Garnish with fresh herbs for a decorative touch.
