Critical Success Points

  • Cooking the compote until thickened
  • Complete dissolution of the gelatin
  • Whipping the egg whites to firm peaks
  • Delicate incorporation of the purée into the whites to avoid deflating them
  • Whipping the very cold cream

Safety Warnings

  • Handle raw egg whites with clean utensils to avoid any risk of salmonella.
  • Ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved to avoid a grainy texture.
  • Be careful of boiling water splashes when cooking the purée.
