Passionfruit Mousse (Mousse de maracuya)

I wish I had done this post yesterday but it was impossible for the usual reasons, in a way my time is not mine for now and it's fine, but finally I'm here with this passionfruit dessert.

I love maracuya and in many parts it gets frozen and I also, although we are close to Peru it is easier to have frozen passion fruit pulp and can be used when you need.

I am really impressed how many passionfruit recipes come from Australia or the United Kingdom and are very good.

This is a delicious maracuya mousse you just have the patience to wait. It is better to do it at night and it will be ready for the other day.

I noticed Yotam Ottolenghi ( an amazing chef) in his book "Sweet " has many passionfruit recipes he is a really genius in pastry and desserts.
You can find his last book in Amazon UK . or Amazon.com.

Passion fruit souffle (Souffle de maracuyá)

Also known as grenadilla, passion fruit is a tropical fruit with intensely flavoured slightly sour, yellow juicy pulp. I have to confess that I absolutely love passion fruit (aka maracuya) and in fact you can make desserts, tarts, ice cream, I had not made a soufle but the recipe enchanted me. Absolutely recommend. I always use frozen maracuya if you do not have fresh maracuya. It freezes very well.
