Red Berry Ice Cream Parfait

Preparation

1. Wash the berries, then drain them thoroughly. Set aside a small handful of berries for garnish.
2. Blend the remaining berries to make a coulis. Strain the mixture through a sieve to remove any seeds, if necessary. Set aside in the refrigerator.
3. Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Whisk the yolks with the granulated sugar and vanilla sugar until the mixture turns pale and becomes fluffy.
4. Add the red berry coulis to the previous mixture, then stir until the mixture is smooth.
5. Whip the very cold heavy cream into soft whipped cream. Gently fold it into the red berry mixture.
6. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gently fold them into the mixture using a spatula to maintain a light and airy texture.
7. Pour the batter into a loaf pan lined with plastic wrap or into individual molds.
8. Place in the freezer for at least 6 hours, until the parfait is firmly set.
9. Remove the parfait from the freezer 10 minutes before serving. Unmold it, and garnish with the reserved berries and berry coulis.
