Add a bit of zest atop a lemon-flavored mousse or chocolate chips on top of a creamy chocolate
mousse for a delectable dessert. Depending upon what you add to the basic mousse recipe a
mousse can also be made into a sweet or savory dish. How about mixing in bits of salmon to
make a smoky salmon mousse for an appetizer!
Mousse can be used in many varieties with many flavors like avocado mousse, blue cheese
mousse and salted caramel mousse are just some of the possibilities one could make with using
just the simple basic recipe for mousse. The possibilities are endless!
But we’re not done. this past week there was another national day to celebrate - National
Bavarian Creme Pie Day which was on November 27.
Hats off and salutations to the famous French chef Marie-Antione Carême (1784-1833) who,
although he didn’t create it, he did perfect the pie. By using a gelatin-based pastry cream (or
custard made with gelatin), and then allowing the flavored cream to set firmly in the mold, he
created a delicious Bavarian Cream Pie. Thanks Chef.
