Fruit Ricotta Mousse Food

GREEK YOGURT MOUSSE WITH STONE FRUIT

Steps:

• Place the yolks, sugar, vanilla and 150 grams water into a stainless bowl, then place the bowl over a pot of simmering water. Cook, whisking vigorously, until it holds ribbons. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Heat half of the cream in a small pot. Squeeze the water from the gelatin. Add the gelatin to the warm cream. Pour the cream and gelatin mixture into the egg yolks and mix well. Fold in the remaining cream and the yogurt. Pour into a large serving dish or divide into individual bowls. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Spoon Stone Fruit and a bit of its juice over the yogurt mousse.
• Put sugar, Aperol, Campari and 3 cups water in a medium pot. Simmer until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat, then add saffron, basil and vanilla seeds. Add fruit to a large bowl. Pour the hot liquid over the fruit. Allow to cool to room temperature.

RASPBERRY-RICOTTA MOUSSE

Steps:

• In a food processor, blend the ricotta cheese until light and fluffy, about 20 seconds. Add the jam and pulse until combined. Transfer to a large bowl.
• In a separate bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream until thick. Add the powdered sugar and continue to beat until the cream holds stiff peaks. Working in batches, carefully fold the cream mixture into the ricotta mixture. Spoon the mousse into serving bowls and refrigerate for 1 hour. Garnish with fresh raspberries and serve.

FRUIT RICOTTA MOUSSE

Steps:

• For a smoother, mousse like texture, blend the ricotta cheese a couple minutes in the blender.
• Fold in the fruit and jam.
• If you plan to serve it all right away, fold in the whipped cream.
• Let it set 20 minutes in the fridge.
• If you only plan to use a portion now and the rest hours later, save out the whipped cream. Let the ricotta fruit mixture rest to let the flavors "marry".
• Spoon out whatever portions you pneed and add the whipped cream.
• Obviously you could use full fat or non fat for the cheese and whipped cream.

RASPBERRIES AND RICOTTA MOUSSE

Steps:

• Mousse: In a food processor, mix ricotta and lemon juice until very creamy and homogeneous.
• In a bowl, whisk egg whites and tartar cream with a mixer until you have soft picks. Add sugar gradually while whisking until firm and straight picks, around 5 minutes. At low speed, incorporate the mixture of ricotta until all is homogeneous.
• Raspberry Garnish: In a bowl, mix raspberries with jam.
• Distribute the mousse in 4 parfait glass or ramequin (or any cute bowls you have) and add raspberry garnish. Put in the fridge. It's better if it's eaten the same day.

LEMON RICOTTA MOUSSE

Steps:

• Beat the ricotta and the sugar for several minutes with an electric mixer until it becomes creamy.
• Add the Limoncello or Grand Marnier.
• Whip the cream (or use whipped cream from a can) and fold in with a spoon or spatula.
• Serve topped with strawberries, raspberries or blueberries.
