Ingredients:
- 1 packet unflavored gelatin
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled
- 3 tablespoons icing sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup orange juice
- 4 fresh strawberries for garnish
- 1/4 cup whipping cream (optional)
Instructions:
-
Gelatin Bloom: In a saucepan, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over orange juice. Allow it to stand for 5 minutes to soften.

Dissolve Gelatin: Warm the mixture over low heat until the gelatin completely dissolves.

Prepare Strawberries: While the gelatin is dissolving, hull the fresh strawberries and place them in a food processor or blender.
-
Make Strawberry Puree: Add icing sugar to the strawberries and process until a smooth puree is achieved.
-
Combine Gelatin and Strawberry Puree: Transfer the strawberry puree to a mixing bowl and stir in the dissolved gelatin mixture. Refrigerate until the mixture reaches the consistency of raw egg whites.
-
Whip Cream (Optional): If using whipping cream, whip it separately and set it aside.
-
Beat Egg Whites: In a large bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
-
Combine Mixtures: Whisk about one-third of the beaten egg whites into the strawberry mixture. Then, gently fold the strawberry mixture and whipped cream (if using) into the remaining beaten egg whites.
-
Chill: Pour the delightful mixture into a 6-cup glass serving bowl or individual glasses. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the mousse to set. You can refrigerate it for up to several days.

Garnish: Before serving, top the Berry-Good Mousse with freshly hulled strawberries for a visually appealing and extra fruity touch.
