In a clean, dry bowl, add the egg whites and a pinch of salt.

Step 5

Using an electric mixer, whisk the egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form.

Step 6

As you continue to whisk, gradually add the sugar until the egg whites are glossy and form stiff peaks.

Step 7

Gently fold the blended tofu mixture into the beaten egg whites, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.

Step 8

Once fully incorporated and smooth, transfer the mousse into serving glasses or bowls.

Step 9

Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the mousse to set.

Step 10

Serve chilled and garnish with additional lemon zest if desired.
