Lemon tea jelly with brown sugar cream is a delightful and refreshing dessert that combines the zesty flavor of lemon with the warmth of cinnamon and the rich creaminess of brown sugar whipped cream. This recipe is perfect for a light and sophisticated ending to any meal, offering a balanced mix of sweet, tangy, and creamy elements.
Instructions:
- Zest the lemon and set the zest aside.
- Juice the lemon, ensuring you have roughly 1/4 cup of lemon juice.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of water, the lemon juice, lemon zest, cinnamon stick, and 1/2 cup of sugar.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
- Once boiling, remove the saucepan from heat and allow it to steep for 10 minutes.
- While the lemon mixture is steeping, sprinkle 2 tablespoons of gelatin powder over 1/4 cup of cold water in a small bowl. Let it bloom for about 5 minutes until it absorbs the water and becomes gelatinous.
- After the lemon mixture has steeped, remove the cinnamon stick.
- Return the mixture to medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Add the bloomed gelatin to the mixture and stir continuously until the gelatin is completely melted and incorporated.
- Pour the lemon-gelatin mixture into molds or a shallow dish. Allow it to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until fully set.
- In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of heavy whipping cream with 2 teaspoons of brown sugar.
- Use an electric mixer to whip the cream until it forms soft peaks. The cream should be fluffy and hold its shape.
- Once the lemon tea jelly has set, gently remove it from the molds or cut it into desired shapes if set in a dish.
- Serve the jelly with a dollop of brown sugar cream on top. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of additional lemon zest or a dash of cinnamon.
Tips:
- Use fresh lemon juice for a more vibrant flavor in the jelly.
- Ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved to avoid any grainy texture in the jelly.
- Chill the jelly completely before topping it with the brown sugar whipped cream for the best texture contrast.
- Beat the whipping cream until soft peaks form before adding the brown sugar to prevent it from becoming too stiff.
- For an extra touch, garnish with lemon zest or a cinnamon stick when serving.
