Lemon Snow Pudding - Delicious and Easy Homemade Recipe
Lemon snow is a light and refreshing dessert that's perfect for a hot summer day. It's made with simple ingredients and requires minimal preparation time. The fluffy lemon meringue and tart lemon flavor make this a delightful and palate-cleansing treat.
Ingredients
- 1 package 3 oz lemon flavored gelatin
- 2 cups boiling water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice optional
- 1 large egg white
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon-flavored gelatin and boiling water until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Stir in the lemon juice, if using.
- Let the gelatin mixture cool and thicken until it reaches a syrupy consistency, about 30 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer with clean beaters, beat the egg white on high speed until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the beaten egg white into the chilled gelatin mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can deflate the egg white.
- Spoon the lemon snow mixture into individual serving dishes or a small mold.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
Notes
Storing your lemon snow
Lemon snow can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Tips and Variations
- For a richer lemon flavor, you can use the zest of one lemon in addition to the lemon juice.
- You can fold in a dollop of whipped cream or a spoonful of crushed fresh fruit into the lemon snow before chilling.
- For a special touch, garnish the lemon snow with a lemon slice or a sprig of mint before serving.
