INGREDIENTS
- 200 g of whole foie gras
- 125 ml of cream
- 4 g of salt
- 3 g of sugar
- A hint of pepper
- 100 ml of cider
ANICET'S HONEY JELLY - 100 ml of honey , preferably from the Miels d’Anicet honey house
- 100 ml of water
- 20 ml of apple cider vinegar
- 2 g of gelatin
- 4 ramekins that can hold approximately 150 ml each
INSTRUCTIONS
- Leave the foie gras to cool for 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes so that it becomes tender and easy to handle.
- Separate the two lobes. Using a butter knife or a small spatula, carefully open the foie gras in a wallet in order to delicately remove the veins found there.
- Once the foie gras is well cleaned, cut it into large pieces.
- In a saucepan, pour the cider and reduce it by half.
- Adjust to medium heat and add salt, sugar, pepper and cream. Bring everything to 60°C.
- Remove from the heat and add the pieces of foie gras, stirring the mixture constantly until you obtain a homogeneous texture.
- Using a hand blender, mix for a few seconds at low speed to ensure the mixture is smooth.
- Place the mixture in the glasses and refrigerate for about 2 hours or until the mousse is well set.
- Let the gelatin swell for a few minutes in cold water.
- In a saucepan, combine the cider vinegar, honey and water then bring to a simmer.
- Add the gelatin and pour everything over the foie gras mousses, once they have cooled well.
- Return the ramekins to the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to fully set the honey jelly.
- Serve on crackers or toast and enjoy!
