NATIONAL MOUSSE DAY
On November 30th, National Mousse Day serves up a delicious treat that can be savory or sweet.
#NationalMousseDay
What can we say about mousse? The word “mousse” in French means “foam.” Typically, we whip egg whites or cream to make a mousse. Depending on the type of mousse, its consistency can vary from light and airy to thick and creamy.
This versatile dish lends itself well to both desserts and savory recipes. In fact, several types of mousse can be served at the same meal. From a smokey salmon mousse as the first course to a tart lemon or creamy chocolate mousse for dessert, there is virtually no limit to the flavors we can incorporate into a mousse.
Mousse can also be used as a filling for other dishes such as pastries and parfaits. A savory mousse pairs well with fruit and cheese plates making beautiful appetizers, too.

HAVE YOU HAD A CHEESE MOUSSE?.......................
MOUSSE PING!
HAVE YOU BITTEN A MOUSSE LATELY?........................
A mousse once bit....oh never mind.
We herd a moose running through the attic latte one knight. It sounded hoarse.
It goes well with squirrel.
And all these years I thought that the pic on the left was of the girl trying to “milk” a bull moose. Based solely on his smile ...
And they make moose cheese?
“HAVE YOU HAD A CHEESE MOUSSE?”
No, but I’ve seen Bullwinkle. :-)
That’s a Cheesy Moose!...............
They do in Sweden.
I knew this thread was going to be fun!
That day Lars took his sister Annika to milk the moose and the moose bit Annika who dropped her bucket and spilt the milk and the startled moose jumped away and as they were chasing the moose Annika unfortunately kicked her bucket and Lars had to come home to tell the tale of the moose, Annika and the milk.
And that’s why we have neither cheese, moose or mousse.
