Vegan Vanilla Mousse with Blackberry and Grape Coulis
Ingredients
Coulis
- 150g blackberries
- 100g black grapes
Vanilla mousse
- 140g aquafaba
- 3 packets vanilla sugar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 200ml soy cream
- 2 packets vanilla sugar
- 1 teaspoon agar
- 55g margarine
Preparation
Blend the blackberries and black grapes, strain through a sieve, and heat in a saucepan over medium heat for about ten minutes.
Whip the aquafaba into stiff peaks.
Once whipped, gradually add the cornstarch and 3 packets of vanilla sugar while continuing to whip, then set aside.
In a large saucepan, combine the soy cream, 2 packets of vanilla sugar, agar, and margarine, and heat while stirring continuously.
When the mixture boils, lower the heat and gradually add the whipped aquafaba, mixing with a hand whisk.
Cook for at least 7 minutes until well heated, then pour into ramekins and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Serve well chilled with the coulis and fresh fruits.
Tips
This mousse works best served in glasses rather than demolded from silicone molds.
It can be adapted for use in a tart base, but further testing may be needed.
