Zubereitung von Easy Lemon Lime Mousse
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, and cornstarch until pale and thick.
- In a saucepan, combine the lime juice, lemon juice, and water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Slowly whisk the hot juice mixture into the egg yolk mixture.
- Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until it thickens to a custard-like consistency (about 2-3 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in the lime zest and lemon zest.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl.
- Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until completely chilled (at least 2 hours).
- In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the chilled custard into the whipped cream until just combined.
- Divide the mousse among individual serving glasses or a larger bowl.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
