To make Tangerine Cream Parfait, you will need the following ingredients:So, how to make Tangerine Cream Parfait?
Grate 2 tablespoons peel from tangerines into zest.
Working over a bowl, cut off the remaining peel and membrane around the tangerine and strain the segments through a strainer producing about 2 cups. Discard bits and reserve juice.
In a 3- to 4-quart pan over medium-high heat, add sugar, gelatin, grated tangerine peel, and 1 cup tangerine juice and stir until combined and simmering. Remove from heat.
In a separate bowl beat remaining tangerine juice with the egg yolks until well combined. Add mixture into pan, and stir over medium-low heat for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and fold in the sour cream.
Place pan over a bowl of ice water, stirring often for about 10 minutes until mixture just begins to thicken.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1½ - 24 hours, to chill and set.
To serve, place 2 tablespoons tangerine segments into 12-oz serving glasses. Gently stir the chilled cream mixture and add about ⅓ cup over the segments. Repeat to create a few layers per serving. Enjoy!
