A light and airy Romanian dessert made with fresh strawberries and whipped egg whites, creating a fluffy, mousse-like texture. Refreshing and simple, it’s perfect for warm days or a delicate sweet treat.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash and hull the strawberries, then mash or blend them into a smooth puree.
  2. In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
  3. Gradually add the sugar while continuing to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the strawberry puree into the whipped egg whites until fully combined and airy.
  5. Add vanilla extract or lemon juice if desired and mix lightly.
  6. Spoon the mixture into serving glasses or bowls.
  7. Serve immediately or chill briefly before serving.

Notes

  • Use pasteurized egg whites if concerned about consuming raw eggs.
  • Serve immediately for the best airy texture.
  • Try substituting strawberries with raspberries or mixed berries.
  • Add a little whipped cream for a richer variation.
  • Avoid overmixing to maintain the fluffy consistency.
