This super-simple recipe is a fun and unexpected way to celebrate the king of cheeses, with all the extraordinary flavor you know and love.
There are moments and places where being fooled can actually be a delight. Think of a magician’s show or, why not, the dinner table. When what we see doesn’t match what we taste, it’s not just our mind that’s surprised; our palate is too. This little illusion, which plays on more than one sense, turns into a deliciously thrilling experience.
At first glance, our Parmigiano Reggiano Mousse might look sweet and delicate, but it hides the bold, savory notes of a 24-month-aged Parmigiano Reggiano, traditionally enhanced by the gentle sweetness of pear and the balsamic hint of Modena vinegar. The main ingredient, the king of cheeses, reveals itself fully at the very first bite.
There’s no need to reinvent Parmigiano Reggiano. Its unmistakable character is more than enough to turn any recipe into something memorable. Still, it’s a challenge worth taking on. Whether we’ve succeeded is for you and your guests to decide as you share the joy of a mousse that is anything but ordinary.
