Orange Mousse is a light and creamy dessert with a refreshing citrus flavor. It’s a perfect treat for citrus lovers and a great way to showcase the vibrant taste of oranges. Here is a recipe for Orange Mousse:

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes (stovetop time)
Chilling Time: 4 hours or overnight
Ready Time: 4 hours 25 minutes (including chilling time)

Ingredients:
  • 2 cups freshly squeezed orange juice (about 4-5 oranges)
  • 2 tablespoons orange zest
  • 4 large eggs, separated
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh orange slices, for garnish (optional)
  • Mint leaves, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
  1. In a small saucepan, heat the orange juice over medium heat until it simmers. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly and intensify the flavor. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  2. In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until well combined and slightly pale in color.
  3. Gradually pour the cooled reduced orange juice into the egg yolk mixture while continuously whisking to prevent the eggs from curdling. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (creating a double boiler) and continue whisking the mixture for about 5-7 minutes until it thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
  5. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  6. In another clean bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
  7. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled orange mixture until well combined.
  8. Then, fold in the beaten egg whites, being careful not to overmix and deflate the mixture.
  9. Divide the orange mousse mixture among serving glasses or bowls. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
  10. Before serving, garnish with fresh orange slices and mint leaves, if desired.

Note: The chilling time is essential for the mousse to set properly and achieve the desired texture.

This recipe serves approximately 4-6 servings, depending on the size of the glasses. Adjust the quantity of ingredients based on your requirements. Enjoy the light and citrusy Orange Mousse!
