Where to find ingredients
Find fresh papayas in the tropical produce section of local grocery stores. Use standard supermarket heavy cream (often labeled as 35% whipping cream) and plain non-fat Greek-style yogurt for the best consistency. Honey and gelatin are located in the baking aisle.
Preparation method
- Blend the papaya, orange juice, and sweetener in a blender until the mixture is completely smooth.
- Bloom the gelatin in a tablespoon of cold water and let it sit for five minutes.
- Warm the heavy cream gently and stir in the bloomed gelatin.
- Whisk thoroughly to ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved.
- Incorporate this cream mixture into the blended papaya base.
- Gently fold the whipped egg white into the papaya mixture until combined.
- Divide the mixture into individual serving molds.
- Refrigerate for approximately six hours to allow the bavaroise to set firmly.
- Prepare the sauce by heating the water with the honey in a small saucepan.
- Allow the honey syrup to cool down completely.
- Whisk the non-fat yogurt into the cooled syrup until smooth.
- Unmold the bavaroise onto plates and serve with the yogurt and honey sauce drizzled around the base.
