This fruit mousse is really great for making modern cakes, or, why not, enjoyed on its own as dessert.In this recipe, I propose 2 different ways of preparing it, either using fresh fruit juice, or fruit puree.
Preparation: 30 minutes minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes minutes
RECIPE FOR: 1 Kg of Fruit Mousse
EQUIPMENTS
- Electric Mixer or a Stand Mixer
- Cooking Thermometer
Ingredients
IF USING FRUIT JUICE (e.g. Orange, Tangerine, Grapefruit, etc...)
IF USING FRUIT PUREE (e.g. Strawberry, Raspberry, Melon, etc...)
For the Italian Meringue
- 110 gr Egg Whites
- 20 gr Granulated Sugar Quantity 1
- 65 gr water
- 200 gr Granulated Sugar Quantity 2
DIRECTIONS
For the Italian Meringue
- Bring water and sugar (quantity 2) to 121°C (250°F). Pour half of the syrup over the whipped egg whites in a stand mixer at medium speed with the sugar (quantity 1); then gradually incorporate the remaining part of the syrup.
- Let it whip at medium speed until the mass has increased in volume. Place the meringue on a clean baking sheet lined with cling film and let it cool quickly before using.
- If you don't have a blast chiller, you can put the meringue in the freezer for about an hour.
IF USING FRUIT JUICE
- Heat a portion of fruit juice in the microwave and incorporate the softened and well-squeezed gelatin, stirring to dissolve it completely.
- Add a first portion of cold Italian meringue to the juice to aerate the mixture, and finally fold in the rest of the meringue, stirring gently from bottom to top.
- Once you have obtained a smooth mixture, add the semi-whipped cream.
- Use immediately to fill cakes or assemble the dessert.
IF USING FRUIT PUREE
- Heat a portion of fruit pulp in the microwave and dissolve the softened and well-squeezed gelatin into it, making sure to completely disperse it.
- Proceed as described above.
