Velvety Mango Mousse Recipes

FROZEN MANGO MOUSSE

Steps:

• In a saucepan, dissolve the sugar with the water and cook to soft ball stage 234 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, whip the whites to soft peaks and then drizzle in the cooked sugar syrup to make an Italian meringue.
• In another saucepan, bring the mango puree and rum to a boil. Then add the gelatin to melt it. Fold this puree into the meringue. Fold in the whipped cream and pipe into 3-inch ring molds and freeze overnight.
• When ready to serve, make the fruit salad carefully tossing together the pineapple and papaya.
• Warm outside of the metal rings with a torch* and pop them out onto dessert plates. Spoon fruit salad and Satin Chocolate Sauce over and serve.
• Propane Gas Torch Warning: Propane gas torches are highly flammable and should be kept away from heat or flame, and should not be exposed to prolonged sunlight. Propane gas torches should only be used in well-ventilated areas. When lighting a propane gas torch, place the torch on a flat, steady surface, facing away from you. Light the match or lighter and then open the gas valve. Light the gas jet, and blow out the match. Always turn off the burner valve to "finger tight" when finished using the torch. Children should never use a propane gas torch without adult supervision.
• Combine the 2 chocolates over simmering water in the top half of a double boiler. Stir constantly until melted, then whisk in the syrup and water without removing the double boiler from the heat. Whisk until smooth and shiny.
• The sauce can be made up to 48 hours in advance and refrigerated. To rewarm, stir over low heat or heat in a microwave.

MANGO MOUSSE

Steps:

• Beat cream in a glass or metal bowl until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the whipped cream will form sharp peaks. Fold mango puree into whipped cream. Scoop mango mousse into serving glasses and chill until set, about 3 hours.

TROPICAL MANGO MOUSSE

• In a blender combine mangoes, bananas, yogurt, honey, ice cubes, and vanilla extract until smooth. Refrigerate for 3 hours. Pour into individual dishes and serve.

MAGNIFICENT MANGO MOUSSE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the mango puree with the lime juice, rum and 1/4 cup sugar.
• Place 2 large empty mixing bowls into the freezer to chill (will be used in a later step).
• To a large saucepan on medium heat, add the mango puree mixture (above) and 1/2 a cup of water and bring to a low-simmer.
• Add the gelatin and reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring constantly, then remove from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
• Remove the chilled bowls from the freezer and in one, whisk together the heavy cream and 1/8c sugar until the mixture forms stiff peaks.
• In the second chilled bowl, beat together the egg whites and the salt to form stiff peaks.
• Fold the egg white mixture into the cream mixture gently, making sure not to over-mix.
• Carefully fold together with the room temperature mango mixture.
• Pour into individual (1-2 cup sized) serving dishes and chill for 1 hour before serving.
