White Chocolate Mousse In A Dark Chocolate Nest With Rasp

John Broadus (one of the founders of the Southern Baptist Seminary and the author of the most influential book on preaching ever written in America) was lecturing his class just nine days before he died when he paused and said: “Gentlemen, if this were the last time I should ever be permitted to address you, I would feel amply repaid for consuming the whole hour endeavoring to impress upon you these two things: true piety, and, like Apollos, to be men ‘mighty in the Scriptures.’” Broadus then paused and stood for a moment with his piercing eyes fixed upon the class. Over and over he repeated in that slow but wonderfully impressive style that was distinctively his, “Mighty in the Scriptures, mighty in the Scriptures.”

INSTRUCTIONS

ESSENCE OF EMERIL SHOW #EE2290  For the mousse: In a saucepan, bring
the cream up to a simmer, add the  white chocolate and whisk completely
melted. Pour the mixture into an  electric mixing bowl. Refrigerate the
mixture until cold, about 1  hour.  For the coulis: Combine all the
ingredients in a sauce pot and reduce  the mixture by half, on high
heat. Puree the mixture with a hand-held  mixer. Refrigerate the coulis
until cool, about 30 minutes. Remove  the chilled mousse mixture from
the refrigerator. Using an electric  mixer, whip the mixture until
fully whipped and peaks form. To  assemble, make a puddle of the coulis
in the center of the plate.  Fill a chocolate nest with the mousse.
Pipe the whipped cream on the  side of the nest to anchor the nest to
the plate. Garnish with the  mint, powdered sugar and chocolate
shavings.  Yield: 4 servings  Posted to recipelu-digest by molony
