A vibrant two-layer dish in red and pink! This mousse has a gentle sweetness from the vegetables.
You can make it the day before, making it convenient for celebrations or entertaining guests.
The origin of this recipe
I once had a delicious appetizer at a restaurant, which I believe was a red bell pepper mousse...
The dish was cut into squares, and the tomatoes were likely fruit tomatoes, but I experimented to make it easy to prepare at home.

Ingredients

Serves 5-6 (easy to make quantity)
  1. 1red bell pepper
  2. 1 teaspoonsugar
  3. 1/2 teaspoonsalt
  4. 1/2 cupmilk and 1/2 cup heavy cream
  5. 4 gramsgelatin
  6. (The photo shows dill and lumpfish roe) (For garnish) Herbs or parsley, etc
  7. ------Sauce-------
  8. 1tomato (preferably very ripe)
  9. Salt, sugar, lemon juice to taste
  10. 1 pinchdried basil, oregano, etc. (if available)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Grill the bell pepper, then place it in cold water and peel off the skin (it should peel off easily by hand). Remove the seeds and roughly chop.

  2. 2

    (Note) Grill until the skin is completely blackened (this brings out the sweetness). If it doesn't fit in the grill, cut it in half lengthwise.

  3. 3

    Add the chopped bell pepper, sugar, salt, and milk to a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. Meanwhile, soak the gelatin.

  4. 4

    Transfer the mixture from the food processor to a pot, warm it without boiling, then mix in the heavy cream and add the gelatin. Divide into dishes and refrigerate once it has cooled slightly.

  5. 5

    (Note) If you refrigerate before it cools slightly, the bell pepper particles may settle. Gently stir just before refrigerating for best results.

  6. 6

    To make the sauce, peel the tomato (remove seeds if desired) and finely chop with a knife (or use a food processor). Season with salt, sugar, and lemon juice.

  7. 7

    For reference... I use about 1/4 teaspoon each of sugar and salt, and just a few drops of lemon juice. Add dried herbs to taste.

  8. 8

    Once the mousse has set, pour the sauce over it and garnish as desired to finish!
