This strawberry mousse recipe is the perfect way to celebrate strawberries. Made with fresh or frozen strawberries, whipped cream, and gelatin (or agar-agar) this takes less than 30 minutes to make.
Blend the strawberries in a food processor or blender until smooth. Strain through a sieve or mesh. Then, add the sugar, salt, lemon juice, and liquor. Combine well.
Next, sprinkle the gelatin with 2 tablespoons of water. Let soak for 3 minutes then heat in the microwave for 30 to 40 seconds until completely dissolved. Let cool slightly.
1 tbsp Gelatin, 2 tbsp Water
Add the melted gelatin mixture to the strawberry puree. The best way to do this is to add a few tablespoons of strawberry puree to the gelatin. Then combine the two.
In the large bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, whip the cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks.
Then, gently fold the whipped cream and strawberry mixture until you have no more white streaks. Your strawberry mousse is ready.
Divide the mixture evenly between 6 individual 7oz glasses (or 10 x 4oz cups). Top with the remaining strawberry puree we saved earlier.
Chill the mousse in the fridge for at least 4 hours - preferably overnight.
You can top garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh strawberries. I used strawberry puree, whipped cream, and a slice of strawberry on each.
½ cup Whipping cream, 4 Strawberries
