Two people meet each other for the first time and at the first glance, they know they are made to be together… the indescribable chemistry that we call love.
Two egg whites in a bowl meet each other and with a little help from a human hand, the two eggs get tranform into a cream so smooth that you can’t help yourself but dipping a finger into it.
This incredible chemistry between two egg whites suddenly opens the door to a whole new field of possibilities for the cook.
Just like with love, cooking is a magical alchemy where the association of two ingredients is the beginning of a new story.
Strawberry mousse – 3 persons
3 egg whites
50g of castor sugar
300g of strawberries
15 cl of double cream
10 cl of orange flower water
Whizz the strawberries to a purée
Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks.
While whisking, add the sugar to make a glossy meringue.
Whip the double cream softly and fold it with the egg whites into the strawberry purée with a wood spoon from up to down.
Add the orange flower water.
Pour the mix into glasses and chill a night in the fridge.
Lovely addition of orange blossom water. Interesting that you write about two people meeting, yet you cook for three!
Very well-thought about the 3 people! Didn’t think of it actually, funny!
YUMMY!!! That would be so great to have right now during this heat wave.
Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure, I hope you will like it!

Strawberry mousse has always been my fav. summer dessert.
Can you believe that I haven’t tasted strawberry mousse? From the looks of it, I’ve been missing out.
You now have all the cards in your hand!
Wow, with the orange blossom water! Three is never a crowd…
That’s the idea!
