Nice to know

Chocolate mousse is a dessert of eggs and chocolate, which is very popular in various countries. Especially in France, where the dish originates from. The word chocolate mousse is composed from the word 'chocolate' and the French word for foam: 'mousse'. The product is, in culinary circles, also referred to as 'mousse au chocolat'. A traditional chocolate mousse is made from dark chocolate. A less strong chocolate taste is obtained by using milk chocolate or white chocolate. Sometimes, a liquor or alcoholic beverage lice brandy is added. A less caloric chocolate mousse can be made by replacing the egg white and whipped cream by low fat quark.

Enjoy!
