A delicate mousse where melt-in-the-mouth white chocolate meets the fresh, vegetal notes of matcha, for a light, creamy and subtly flavored dessert. This sweet and bitter combination is popular in many contemporary recipes for matcha green tea mousse.
Ingredients
-
200–250 g high-quality white chocolate, finely chopped
-
300–350 ml very cold whole liquid cream
-
2 to 3 teaspoons of matcha powder (sifted)
-
2–3 tablespoons of sugar (optional, according to your taste)
-
Pinch of salt (optional)
-
Heat-resistant bowls
-
Whisk (manual or electric)
-
Flexible spatula
-
Verrines or ramekins
Recommended utensils
Instructions
Place the chopped white chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Melt it in a double boiler or gently in the microwave, stirring regularly until smooth.
Add the matcha powder to the melted chocolate and mix well until the color is uniform and there are no lumps.
Whip the cold liquid cream into stiff whipped cream. If you are using sugar, you can add it at the end of the whipping process.
Gently fold ⅓ of the whipped cream into the chocolate-matcha mixture to lighten it, then add the rest, folding gently with a spatula. Do not overwork the mixture to preserve its lightness.
Divide the mousse between small glasses or ramekins. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (ideally longer) before serving.
Recipe notes
Decoration: A light dusting of matcha powder on top or white chocolate shavings.
Fruity additions: A few fresh raspberries or red berries contrast nicely with the sweetness.
Light version: Replace some of the cream with Greek yogurt for a tangier flavor.
