Raspberry-Tangerine Mousse
- 2 tablespoons gelatin, unflavored unflavored
- 4 tablespoons water cold
- 1 each tangerines juiced and grated zest
- 2 pints raspberries
- 2 each egg yolks
- 2 teaspoons liqueur grand marnier or cointreau, orange flavor
- 1/2 cup sugar granulated
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- Dissolve gelatin in water.
- It will form a rubbery chunk.
- Add juice, zest and berries (save a few berries for garnish) and heat gently.
- It should boil, but just barely.
- Stir the whole time.
- Cook until the rubbery gelatin chunk is dissolved.
- This will mangle most of the berries; that's ok.
- This stuff should be a chunky goop at this point.
- Let it cool.
- Beat egg yolks and sugar together.
- They should be a pale yellow.
- Add liqueur and mix thoroughly.
- Heat over a double boiler until it thickens slightly (stirring constantly.)
- It shouldn't take very long; the color will change slightly.
- If it's hot all the way through, that's good enough.
- Let it cool.
- Mix egg yolk goop and berry goop thoroughly.
- Whip cream to soft peaks and fold into the mixture.
- Chill and serve.
- I like to put it into individual dessert glasses before chilling.
- Add some berries or other fruit as a garnish.
