Ingredients
- 2 whole Lemons
- 75 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 200 milliliters Heavy cream
- 50 milliliters Water
- 1 teaspoon Gelatin powder
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
Zest one of the lemons to get approximately 1 teaspoon of lemon zest, then juice both lemons to extract about 50 milliliters of lemon juice.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the gelatin powder with 2 tablespoons of water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
Step 3
In a saucepan over low heat, combine the lemon juice, lemon zest, granulated sugar, and the remaining water. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then gently heat the mixture without letting it boil.
Step 4
Separate the egg yolks from the whites. Place the yolks in a small bowl and whisk briefly. Gradually add a few tablespoons of the warmed lemon mixture into the yolks while whisking to temper them.
Step 5
Pour the tempered yolks into the saucepan with the remaining lemon mixture and cook it on low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly. Remove from the heat.
Step 6
Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm lemon mixture and stir until completely dissolved. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
Step 7
In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
Step 8
Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture, followed by the beaten egg whites. Fold until just combined, ensuring the mixture stays light and airy.
Step 9
Divide the lemon froth evenly among serving glasses or bowls. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours or until set.
Step 10
Garnish with a lemon slice or extra lemon zest before serving, if desired. Enjoy your refreshing Lemon Froth!
