Inside Out Peanut ****er and Jelly Sandwich (Valentine's Day)

Ingredients:

The concept for this dish started out as a kind of PB&J ravioli, with the peanut ****er forming the "pasta" and the jelly inside. Through a series of conversations and flashes of brilliance (or madness, you be the judge) it evolved into a full-on inversion of the usual PB&J system. The filling for this desser is candied barley, a sort of crunchy bread analogue. The barley is sandwiched between two slices of peanut ****er gelatin, and the whole is topped with macerated fruit to replace the jelly. The result is a not-too-sweet peanut ****ery morsel that hopefully expands our definition for the word sandwich.

Peanut ****er Gelatin

2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
3/4 cup peanut ****er
2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
