Makes 6 servings of Czech Peach Mousse - Broskvovi Krem

Prep Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients:

6 tablespoons sugar

1/2 cup white wine (dry or sweet)

10 peeled and pitted medium peaches

1 large pasteurized egg white

2 tablespoons gelatin

2 cups heavy cream whipped with 4 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Preparation:

In a large saucepan, place sugar, sprinkle it with 6 tablespoons of the wine and bring to a boil. Add peaches. Cook for about 20 minutes or until fruit has broken down into pulp. You can strain the pulp through a sieve, but I don't. Cool.





Add egg white to peach pulp and beat to a thick foam. Heat remaining wine with gelatin until it has dissolved. Add to fruit mixture, blending thoroughly. Cool and then fold in whipped cream.





Pour into individual molds or one large mold that has been rinsed with cold water and refrigerate until set, about 3 hours.





When ready to serve, dip bottom of mold briefly (about 5 seconds) into very warm water and turn out on serving dishes or platter. Serve with peach maramalade, if desired.
