Sencha-Infused Ruby Chocolate Mousse with Fall Fruit Compote and Sencha Candied Nuts

Sencha-Infused Ruby Chocolate Mousse

Ingredients:
120g ruby chocolate
¼ tsp almond extract
¼ cup almond milk
1½ tsp Edible Green sencha powder
Pinch salt
½ cup aquafaba, room temperature

Directions:

1.     In a small bowl over a double boiler, melt the ruby chocolate with the almond extract, almond milk, sencha powder, and salt. Let cool slightly.
2.     While the chocolate is cooling, whip the aquafaba to stiff peaks with a Kitchen Aid or handheld electric mixer – the bowl and whisk must be completely clean and dry for this to work. Start slow and increase the speed as the peaks begin to form – the whole process will take about five minutes.
3.     Carefully fold the chocolate into the aquafaba with a spatula and gently mix until fully incorporated – you do not want to overmix or it will deflate the mousse.
4.     Pour into desired containers and let sit overnight.

Fall Fruit Compote

Ingredients:
2 apples
2 pears
1 cup fresh cranberries
3 T Meyer lemon juice
1 T honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
1¼ tsp Anti-Inflammatory adaptogen
Pinch salt

Directions:

1.     Peel and rough chop the apples and pears.
2.     In a small pot over low heat, combine the apples, pears, cranberries, Meyer lemon juice, honey, vanilla extract, anti-inflammatory adaptogen, and salt. Cover with a lid and cook until it resembles a compote.
3.     Adjust the seasoning with more salt if necessary and let cool.

Sencha Candied Nuts and Seeds

Ingredients:
1/8 cup pumpkin seeds
1/8 cup sunflower seeds
1/8 cup sliced almonds
1/8 cup cashew pieces
1 tsp Edible Green sencha powder
2 tsp maple syrup
Pinch salt

Directions:

1.     Stir together the nuts and seeds, sencha powder, and maple syrup in a small pan and cook over medium heat until the maple syrup caramelizes and starts to harden around the nuts.
2.     Season with salt and let cool – the candy shell will become harder as it cools.

Assembly

Each individual recipe makes a nice snack or dessert. And the three together create a fabulous harmony in flavor. To assemble them, place the compote on top of the mousse, then garnish with the nuts.
