Provided by BobLongo

Number Of Ingredients 10

Total: 5 hr 25 min Active: 25 min Yield: 6 servings
1 cup blood orange juice
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 egg yolks
4 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon orange zest (from 1/2 orange)
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
5 crunchy gingersnap cookies

Steps:

  • Special equipment: six 3-ounce serving bowls or espresso cups In a small saucepan set over medium heat, bring the orange juice to a boil and cook until reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Meanwhile in a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of the sugar, the salt and yolks until smooth. Whisking constantly, add half of the reduced orange juice to the yolk mixture to temper. When it is all incorporated, return the tempered yolk mixture to the pan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula to prevent the eggs from scrambling, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 7 minutes. Strain the mixture into a clean bowl and whisk in the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, and the zest. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the mixture and refrigerate until chilled through, at least 5 hours. Pour the heavy cream into a medium bowl, and add the vanilla and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream on medium speed just until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes, being careful avoid overbeating. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold half of the whipped cream into the chilled orange mixture. Pour that mixture into the remaining whipped cream and continue to fold until completely incorporated. Divide the mixture among six 3-ounce serving bowls or espresso cups. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve. When ready to serve, put the gingersnaps in a resealable plastic bag and smash gently with a rolling pin. Sprinkle on top of the mousse, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use ripe oranges for the best flavor. Clementines or tangerines work well in place of oranges as well.
  • To easily zest an orange, use a Microplane zester or the finest holes on a regular grater.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites, or the mousse will be too stiff.
  • To prevent the egg whites from curdling when adding the hot sugar syrup, add it very slowly in a thin stream while whisking constantly.
  • Chill the mousse for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.
  • For a fun variation, try adding a tablespoon of Grand Marnier or Cointreau to the mousse before chilling.
  • Serve the mousse in individual glasses or ramekins, topped with whipped cream, orange zest, or chocolate shavings.
