Irish Moss Strawberry Mousse and Gelato Ice Cream

Strawberry Mousse with Ice Cream from Amore Bio Gelato

Time for dessert? While it is fresh strawberry season it would be a pity not to prepare another Irish Moss Mousse. It's But first, I'll be honest. I didn't mnake the ice cream myself. I left that to the experts at Amore Bio Gelato in Poznan where I bought their excellent homemade Italian ice cream.

Ingredients for the strawberry mousse:
10g dried carragheen (Irish moss)
20 large strawberries
1l water
2tbs honey or sugar

Preparation:
Add the carragheen to the water in a saucepan, bring it to the boil and simmer for 15-30 minutes until about half of the water has evaporated. Add the strained water to the strawberries and honey/sugar and blend while still hot. Immediately pour the mousse into your dessert bowls and allow to cool before refrigerating if you want to serve the mousse cold.

Enjoy!
