Preparation Steps
In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
In a blender, puree the mandarin oranges until smooth. Strain the mixture to remove any pulp.
Heat the strained orange puree in a small pan over medium heat, stirring in the sugar and salt until dissolved.
Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm orange mixture and stir until completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until firm peaks form.
Gently fold the cooled orange mixture into the whipped cream until well combined.
Transfer the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
For a garnish, top with a few extra mandarin segments and a sprig of mint.
