"I prefer to regard a dessert as I would imagine the perfect woman: subtle, a little bittersweet, not blowsy and extrovert. Delicately made up, not highly rouged. Holding back, not exposing everything and, of course, with a flavor that lasts."
Graham Kerr (the Galloping Gourmet)


"The dessert crowns the dinner. To create a fine dessert, one has to combine the skills of a confectioner, a decorator, a painter, an architect, an ice-cream manufacturer, a sculptor, and a florist. The splendour of such creations appeals above all to the eye - the real gourmand admires them without touching them! The magnificence of the dessert should not allow one to forget the cheese. Cheese complements a good dinner and supplements a bad one."
Eugene Briffault

Hazelnut Mousse

 

Ingredients

2 egg yolks
50 g sugar
25 g unsalted butter, melted
2 tbsp strong black coffee
100 g hazelnuts - toasted and ground
100 g crame fraiche



 

Preparation

A classic hazelnut mousse makes a delightful dessert for special
occasions. This one is flavoured with some black coffee - two
sophisticated flavours in one dish.

Beat the egg yolks until they are pale, add the sugar and beat until
the mixture is thick. Beat in the melted butter and stir in the
coffee and the ground hazelnuts. Whisk the cr`me fraiche and fold
into the nut mixture gently but thoroughly. Chill for at least
2 hours before serving.
