Instructions

  1. In a heatproof bowl, whisk egg yolks, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and salt. Set bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water. Whisk constantly until mixture thickens and a thermometer reads 160–170°F, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.

  2. In another heatproof bowl, combine ¼ cup cream and white chocolate. Set over barely simmering water and stir until smooth and melted. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.

  3. Whip remaining cream to firm peaks. Divide whipped cream evenly between the lemon base and white chocolate base, folding gently until incorporated.

  4. Layer about ¼ cup lemon mousse into each parfait glass. Top with strawberries, then ¼ cup white chocolate mousse. Repeat layers once more. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with additional strawberries if desired.
