Instructions

  • Chop the gelatin, place it in a bowl and cover it with cold water, then let it rest for 20 minutes.
  • Put the egg yolks in the bowl of an electric blender, add the sugar, blend until frothy, then pour the mixture into a bowl.
  • Incorporate the juice of 2 lemons (strained), the grated zest (only the yellow part) and the previously drained gelatin, well squeezed and melted in a bain-marie.
  • Stir carefully with a flexible whisk and finally mix in the beaten egg whites and whipped cream.
  • Pour the mousse into a pudding mold and place the container in the refrigerator for 3 hours.
