Step-by-step Guide

Preparation

  • Roast the red peppers in the oven at 200 degrees for 30 minutes, turning them halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  • When the peppers are cool enough to handle, carefully remove the skin and eliminate all the seeds.
  • Set aside the cleaned peppers in a container until needed for the final dish.
  • Soak the gelatin sheet in a bowl of very cold water for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the rind from the Reblochon and cut it into small cubes, about 2 centimeters. Set aside the cheese cubes separately.
  • In a saucepan, bring the milk and fine herbs to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it reaches the boiling point.
  • When the milk begins to boil, immediately add the Reblochon cheese cubes.
  • Add the hydrated and well-drained gelatin sheet to the hot mixture and stir vigorously until completely dissolved.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool for a few minutes until it is lukewarm.
  • Add the egg yolks to the lukewarm mixture and stir energetically until a homogeneous texture is obtained.
  • Beat the egg whites to stiff peaks and gradually fold them into the Reblochon cream, gently stirring with a spatula to prevent deflating.
  • Fill the individual containers with the mousse and let cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  • Place the containers in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours until the mousse has fully set.
  • Once the mousse has set, spoon the red pepper coulis on top before serving.
Recommendations & Tricks
  • Note: Ensure all ingredients are well-chilled before beginning to prepare the mousse, as it is a dish served cold.
  • For 4 people: Use 150 g of Reblochon cheese, making sure to remove the rind before melting it with the cream.
  • Use 50 ml of cream with 35% fat content to achieve a creamy and rich texture in the mousse.
  • Soak 2 g of gelatin (approximately one sheet) in cold water for about 5 minutes before dissolving it in the hot cream.
  • Add freshly ground black pepper to taste after whipping the mousse to adjust the spiciness.
  • Incorporate 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped fine herbs such as chives, parsley, and chervil to add freshness and aroma to the mousse.
  • For the red pepper coulis: roast 2 red peppers in the oven, cover them to "sweat," then easily peel them. Break them into pieces and blend until smooth.
  • Mix the red pepper coulis with 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to achieve a silky and glossy sauce.
