Ingredients
- 150 ml of cold whipping cream
- 120g of dark chocolate (70%), melted and slightly cooled
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- The zest of half an orange
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate gently and let it cool down (it should be lukewarm, not hot).
- Load the BlendStorm between 66% and 99% and perfectly align the two alignment points.
- Add the ingredients in this order: cream → melted chocolate → sugar → orange zest.
- Close the lid and blend for 1 complete cycle (40 sec) while holding the blender upright.
- Pour into dessert glasses and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours until the mousse has set.
Benefits
- Silky texture: the blender is essential to evenly distribute the chocolate and citrus oils, thus avoiding graininess or bitterness.
- Balance of flavors: the intensity of dark chocolate is enhanced by the freshness of orange zest for an elegant finish.
- Natural setting: the emulsion created by the BlendStorm allows the foam to set naturally in the cold without additives.
