For the mousse

- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup heavy cream, cold
- 2 pasteurized egg whites
- 1 pinch cream of tartar

Instructions
- 1
Combine the hulled strawberries, 2 tablespoons of the sugar, and the lemon juice in a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth, about 30 seconds. Pour the purée through a fine-mesh strainer into a large bowl, pressing with a spatula to extract as much liquid as possible; discard the seeds. You should have about 1 cup of purée. Set aside.

In a large, clean bowl, beat the cold heavy cream with a hand mixer on medium-high speed until it holds firm peaks, about 3–4 minutes. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the egg whites.
