Ingredients

• 450 grams Fresh strawberries (hulled and divided)
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 14 grams Unflavored gelatin
• 60 milliliters Cold water
• 240 milliliters Heavy whipping cream (chilled)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0 Strawberries (optional, for garnish)
• 0 Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Hull and rinse the strawberries. Reserve a few whole strawberries for garnish if desired, and puree the remaining strawberries until smooth using a blender or food processor.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, combine the strawberry puree, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the cold water and let it bloom for about 5 minutes. Heat the bloomed gelatin gently in the microwave for 10–15 seconds or until dissolved, making sure not to let it boil.

Step 4

Stir the dissolved gelatin into the slightly cooled strawberry puree, ensuring it is fully incorporated. Set the mixture aside to cool further to room temperature.

Step 5

In a large bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract together until it holds stiff peaks. Be careful not to overwhip.

Step 6

Gently fold the cooled strawberry mixture into the whipped cream in batches, ensuring it is evenly combined without deflating the cream.

Step 7

Pour the mixture into a large serving bowl or divide it evenly into individual serving glasses or molds. Smooth the tops if using a bowl or molds.

Step 8

Refrigerate the Bavarian Jello for at least 4–6 hours, or until fully set.

Step 9

Before serving, garnish with the reserved strawberries and mint leaves, if desired. Serve chilled and enjoy!
