Lemon Mousse
Strawberry Consommé
Method
Lemon Mousse
Prepare the Lemon Mousse
In a mixing bowl, combine lemon juice, lemon zest, and sugar. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved.
Whip Cream
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon and egg white mixture until combined.
Chill
Transfer the mousse to serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set.
Strawberry Consommé
Prepare the Strawberries
In a blender, combine the strawberries and sugar. Blend until smooth.
Strain the Mixture
Pass the blended mixture through a fine sieve to separate the juice from the pulp.
Cook the Consommé
In a saucepan, combine the strawberry juice and water. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 10 minutes. Add basil leaves during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
Cool and Serve
Remove from heat and let cool. Serve the consommé chilled alongside the lemon mousse.
