Instructions

Halloween Style

Cut the tops off 4 oranges and cut out the flesh. Carve the face into the orange with a knife.
6 oranges

Orange bavarois

Spread the gelatin in a bowl with cold water for at least 10 minutes so that it can soften.
3 teaspoon gelatin powder, ¼ cup cold water
Juice the oranges and pour the orange juice, the liquid you collected while scooping out, Juice lemon juice, and the sugar into a pan and bring to a boil.
2 tablespoons lemon juice, ¾ cup sugar
Remove from the heat and dissolve the gelatin in it while stirring. Place the pan in a bowl of cold water to cool quickly.
Add the egg whites with salt in a fat-free bowl and beat the egg whites until stiff.
2 egg whites , ⅛ teaspoon salt
In a second bowl, beat the cream until stiff.
1 cup cream
Gently mix the egg white into the whipped cream. When the juice has cooled down properly and becomes a bit lumpy, quickly but carefully fold it into the airy egg white-cream mixture.
Spoon this into glasses or, if you like, into the hollowed-out oranges and let it set in the refrigerator (at least three hours)

NOTES

1. Egg white:

Separates the yolk from the egg white. There must not be a trace of egg yolk; otherwise, you will no longer be able to beat the egg white until stiff.
Also, ensure that your bowl and mixing hooks are grease-free. You do this by washing, rinsing, and drying it thoroughly with hot water and dishwashing liquid before use.

2. Gelatin:

You can buy it as sheets or as gelatin powder. Start by softening the gelatin in the water, then dissolve it in a hot liquid. It does not matter which type of gelatin you use for the result.
Use half a teaspoon of gelatin powder for each sheet in the recipe.

3. Orange:

Freshly squeezed orange juice has the most flavor, but you can also use store bought orange juice.
Tip: If you eat this with adults, you can choose to add a tablespoon of orange liqueur for even more flavor.
By straining the juice before adding it, you prevent lumps from forming
Adding finely chopped pieces of candied orange peel is also nice for extra texture and flavor. About a tablespoon.

4. Let the bavarois set for at least 3 hours, but even better, six hours for the fluffiest result. Then, the gelatin can do its best work.

5. Please note: You are using egg white, which is processed raw. It is, therefore, better not to serve this dish to children under four years old, the sick, and elderly people.

6. Storage

If the bavarois has not been out of the refrigerator for too long, you can still store it (because you are working with raw eggs, you have to be careful with this.

Refrigerator: Store the bavarois covered for up to a day.
Freezer: Wrap the bavarois in two layers of foil and freeze for up to a month. Let it thaw in the freezer (or eat it like orange bavarois ice cream).
