Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 3 cups mandarin oranges peeled and segmented
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 0.25 cup water cold
  • 2.5 teaspoons gelatin unflavored
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

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.
