Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh raspberries
- 100 grams sugar
- 250 milliliters heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon gelatin
- 3 tablespoons cold water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 50 grams fresh raspberries
Instructions
Place 300 grams of fresh raspberries in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
Strain the raspberry puree through a fine sieve into a bowl to remove the seeds, ensuring you extract as much puree as possible.
In a small bowl, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of gelatin over 3 tablespoons of cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the raspberry puree and 100 grams of sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved, then add the bloomed gelatin and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
In a separate bowl, whip 250 milliliters of heavy cream with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until it forms stiff peaks.
Gently fold the cooled raspberry mixture into the whipped cream until well combined.
Spoon the mousse into individual serving glasses or bowls, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
Refrigerate the mousse for at least 2 hours or until set.
Garnish each serving with the remaining 50 grams of fresh raspberries before serving.
