Directions

  1. Pour reserved peach syrup into a measuring cup. Add enough cold water to make 1 cup. Pour into the top of a double boiler. Sprinkle in gelatin, let stand, about 5 minutes.

  2. Beat egg yolks and 1/4 cup cold water together in a bowl. Stir into gelatin mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, over simmering water, until gelatin dissolves and sauce thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

  3. Stir lemon juice, almond extract, and salt into the sauce. Refrigerate until cooled.

  4. Place drained peaches in a blender, blend until smooth. Stir into the gelatin mixture and refrigerate until mixture mounds up slightly.

  5. Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until foamy. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form. Fold into peach mixture.

  6. Beat heavy cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with a chilled whisk until stiff peaks form. Fold into peach mixture. Pour into a large dish and chill until set, 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
