Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 100 grams sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 120 milliliters water
- 10 grams gelatin powder
- 200 milliliters whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly, remove the stems, and cut them into halves.
Place the strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan. Add 120 milliliters of water and cook over medium heat until the strawberries are soft and start to release their juices, about 5-7 minutes.
Transfer the strawberry mixture to a blender or use an immersion blender to puree it until smooth. Strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove seeds.
In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over 2 tablespoons of water and let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Warm the strained strawberry puree slightly (if it has cooled) and stir in the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved. Allow the mixture to come to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, whip the cream with vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently fold the cooled strawberry mixture into the whipped cream, being careful not to deflate the cream.
Divide the flummery mixture into individual serving glasses or bowls. Smooth the tops with a spoon and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Before serving, garnish with fresh strawberries, a dollop of whipped cream, or a mint leaf if desired.
