    Fruit Whip

    List of Ingredients







    16 oz. can fruit cocktail, drained, reserving juice
    1 cup orange juice
    3 packages orange gelatin
    1 lemon, zested and juiced
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    2 egg whites (see note)




    Recipe




    Combine reserved fruit cocktail liquid with half of orange juice and
    bring to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in
    gelatin until completely dissolved. Add lemon zest, lemon juice,
    remaining orange juice and vanilla to the gelatin. Chill for about 1
    hour, or until partially set.

    Add egg whites (see NOTE) and beat until doubled in size and
    creamy, 5 to 7 minutes.

    In a medium serving bowl, spread half the fruit cocktail. Top with
    the gelatin mixture and chill until firm, about 2 hours. Spread the
    remaining fruit on top before serving.

    NOTE: Follow these steps for salmonella-safe egg whites:

    Place egg whites in a medium stainless steel bowl. For each
    white, add 1 tablespoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon water, and 1/16
    teaspoon cream of tartar. With a wooden or plastic spoon, stir
    gently, breaking up egg whites, but not raising any foam. Set
    aside.

    In medium skillet, heat 1 inch of water to a simmer and remove
    from heat. Place the bowl in the hot water and begin stirring and
    scraping constantly with a heat-resistant rubber spatula to
    prevent overheating. After 1 minute of constant stirring, remove
    bowl from hot water and check temperature with a quick-read
    kitchen thermometer (tilt bowl if necessary to have about 2
    inches of white covering thermometer stem).

    Temperature must be 160°F. If not, place the bowl back in the
    hot water and resume scraping in 15-second increments until the
    temperature reaches 160°F. Rinse off the thermometer in the hot
    pan water between each use; cool before reusing.
