Feta Mousse
Feta Mousse
Story
My go-to savory mousse for quick snacks and canapés — clean feta flavor, perfect texture.
Description
Soak the gelatin, warm the cream just enough to dissolve it, then blend hot cream straight into feta for a silky emulsion. Chill to set, then give it a quick re-blend for a glossy, pipeable finish. Perfect for canapés, pita bites, or plated dots.
Steps
Hydrate gelatin
- 1Soak the 4 silver gelatin leaves in plenty of cold water (5–7 min) until soft. 🧊
Heat cream & dissolve
- 2Bring the double cream to ~60 °C (hot, not boiling). Squeeze gelatin well and whisk it into the hot cream until fully dissolved.
Blend
- 3Add crumbled feta to a food processor. Pour the hot cream **through a chinois (fine sieve)** directly into the processor. Season with a pinch of white pepper.
- 4Blend at max speed for **10 seconds** until completely smooth and glossy.
Set
- 5Scrape into a container. Press cling film directly onto the surface (touching). Chill 3–4 hours, until set and cold.
Re-blend & pipe
- 6Return to the processor and blend **10 seconds** to loosen to a pipeable mousse. Transfer to a piping bag and store chilled.
