Chocolate Mousse. Makes 8 servings
Ingredients
150g of the best quality chocolate you wish to use
8 eggs
|
Instructions:
- Incredible but true, these are just the two ingredients needed
- You can add what ever liquor flavor you wish but then it’s not chocolate mousse anymore
- Tip #1: Do not use chocolate milk, it will not set properly.
- Tip #2: Only exception is a little drop of coffee extract that enhances the chocolate flavor use the best quality if adding this.
- Melt the chocolate in a blow on hot water called bain marie
- Separate the egg yolk from white. Yolk goes in large round bowl.
- Beat up the egg white slowly first setting 2 for 1 minute and then 4 for 1 minute then top speed until firm
- This is trick #3 to get the maximum air into the mixture.
- Reverse the bowl if they stick you are good if they drop on the floor well you know what you need to do.
- When the chocolate is melted mix with the egg yolk quickly to not let them cook or you will have a grainy feel in the mousse.
- Now for the tricky part incorporation of the egg white to the chocolate.
- You need to be quick without loosing the air trapped in the white.
- At once put all the white with chocolate, with a flat cooking spoon both hand at the top of the bowl your left hand turn the bowl half way around and the other cut and turn the mixture delicately.
- Do not mix or you will have a runny soup for dessert. That the biggest trick #4
- Transfer in a clean bowl and let seat in the fridge for 4-5 hours to settle.
