Foie Gras Mousse

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Foie Gras Mousse

    In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add finely chopped shallots and sauté until soft. In a food processor, combine the foie gras, sautéed shallots, cognac, salt, and white pepper. Blend until smooth.

  2. 2

    Incorporate Heavy Cream

    With the food processor running, slowly add the heavy cream until fully incorporated and the mousse is light and fluffy.

  3. 3

    Chill the Mousse

    Transfer the mousse to a serving dish or mold. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Toasted Brioche

    Slice the brioche and toast until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

  5. 5

    Serve with Toppings

    Serve the foie gras mousse chilled, topped with fresh concord grapes and toasted marcona almonds alongside the toasted brioche.
