California Farm Fennel Potato Mousse

A mousse is finer than a mash, a little more sophisticated, made with heavy cream instead of milk. Just as easy to make, but using a food processor instead of a hand masher.
It is the base on your dinner plate to present delicate seafood and fresh vegetables, like shrimp, scallops and snowpeas in the pod.
It is also a delicious dish by itself.

Asian Sweet Potato Mousse Asian Sweet Potato Mousse
I was addicted to Asian sweet potato pudding once and found the recipe for mousse!!I prefer a looser mousse, so I changed the recipe a bit.It's easy and has smooth texture. I like the mousse better.Adjust the amount of sugar since the sweetness of the sweet potatoes vary. I recommend sweetening the mousse lightly and have it with brown sugar syrup.If you don't have heavy cream, you could replace it with milk. It will be much lighter. Recipe by Eripu- cookpad.japan -

Peach Mousse Peach Mousse
I found some really cheap peaches at the greengrocers...5 for 198 yen! I bought them without hesitation. Not only were they cheap, they were pretty tasty too. I love peaches second only to mangoes. I thought if I made mousse with them, it would be amazing. That's how this recipe was born.You can use any liqueur you like instead of peach liqueur. If you want the jelly to be pink, you can also add grenadine syrup for a pretty color.Make sure to cool the peach jelly down before pouring it over the mousse! (If it's warm, the mousse will melt and sink.) For 6 small glasses worth. Recipe by ko-ko cookpad.japan -

I bought plenty of strawberries and somebody also gave some to me. I used them to make a mousse with a little bit of an effort.You can use any kind of 12 cm mould, but I used a tart mould. I use the same mould for the sponge and jelly inside.Alcohol content is evaporated from the white wine so you won't taste too much of it. For 15 cm [5.9 in] circle mould with removable bottom.
