How to Make Mango Ginger Mousse
- In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin and saffron over 2 tablespoons of warm water. Let it bloom for 10 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until light and pale. Gradually whisk in the bloomed gelatin mixture and remaining 4 tablespoons of water.
- Place the bowl over a double boiler (or a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water) and whisk constantly until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes). Do not boil.
- Remove from heat and let the custard cool slightly.
- Gently fold in the mango puree and candied ginger.
- In a clean, dry bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the mango mixture, then carefully fold in the beaten egg whites in two additions.
- Transfer the mousse to a piping bag fitted with a large star nozzle (or spoon into serving dishes).
- Pipe or spoon the mousse into individual serving glasses, mini tart crusts, or chocolate shells.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves or edible flowers.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving chilled.
