Ham mousse

Yields1 Serving

I have made this recipe many times, it is perfect for a summer buffet. Beware it is quite rich...and remember that gelatin based dishes do not tolerate heat very well, so do not let this out in the sun....

Mousse
 50 g Ham
 200 ml Cold velouté (See recipe)
 150 ml Liquid gelatin
 Pepper
 400 ml Whipping cream (35%)
Mousse
2

Chop the ham (ideally in a meat grinder)

3

Mix with the velouté

4

Place the container on ice and mix in the liquid jelly and the cream slightly whipped

5

Mix until homogeneous, season to taste

6

If you intend to unmold your mousse you should "line" your mold with some liquid jelly first

7

Pour the mousse and refrigerate a few hours

8

Decorate with lemon slices or parsley

If you plan to unmold a mousse, I suggest you use a plastic mold with a snap off bottom (Tupperware) as they allow air to penetrate and make unmolding a lot easier.
With a rigid mold, you can dip the mold in hot water for a minute and then run a knife around the top, before turning it over on a dish. Wipe the water off the mold so it does not drip on your presentation plate
