1 tbsp. granular, unflavored gelatin
1 1/2 c. canned pumpkin puree
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. grated nutmeg
1/2 c. fresh squeezed orange juice
1/4 c. lemon juice
3 eggs, separated
1 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. heavy cream

Soften the gelatin in the lemon juice and set aside. Beat the egg yolks with half of sugar until the mixture is light and lemon colored. Add the pumpkin puree, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and orange juice. Blend well. Place the mixture on simmering water and cook stirring until it is thickened.

Spoon the gelatin into the hot mixture and stir to blend. Let stand until cool, but not stiff. Fold in the remaining sugar. Beat the egg whites until they are stiff and fold them in. Whip the dream until stiff and fold it in. Chill until set and serve in praline baskets (see this section).
