Despite what you may think from looking at the ingredient list, this mousse is not overly rich-the consistency is actually quite delicate. Pair the mousse with a green salad, and you've got a terrific brunch or light supper. Active time: 40 min Start to finish: 2 1/2 hr

Yield Makes 8 (first course) servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 large eggs, separated
9 ounces cooked ham, trimmed and finely ground in a food processor (2 cups)
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch of white pepper
Pinch of cayenne
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup chilled heavy cream
2 tablespoons medium-dry Sherry
Garnish: watercress sprigs
Accompaniment: Hollandaise
an 8- by 4- by 2 1/2-inch (1-quart) metal loaf pan

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300°F.
  • Whisk yolks in a bowl, then whisk in ham, nutmeg, white pepper, cayenne, and salt.
  • Beat together cream and Sherry in another bowl with an electric mixer until cream holds soft peaks, then fold into ham gently but thoroughly.
  • Beat egg whites with a pinch of salt in another bowl with cleaned beaters until frothy, then fold into ham gently but thoroughly.
  • Spread mousse in well-buttered loaf pan and bake, uncovered, in a hot water bath in middle of oven until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and mousse is firm to the touch, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Transfer loaf pan to a rack and cool mousse 40 minutes. Run dull side of a thin knife or a small spatula around edges and invert mousse onto a plate.

HAM MOUSSE

This is a great way to use leftover ham. It can be served on a sandwich, on a bed of lettuce, on a cracker as an hors d'oeuvre, or with melon, figs, or peaches as a first course. From the book Relax! It's Only Dinner by Cheryl Merser. Easy and tasty.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb baked ham, from the deli or 1 lb left over baked ham

fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Cut the ham in chunks, removing any rind or fat.
  • Put into the food processor, and pulse until it's the texture of hamburger.
  • Stir in everything else, and if possible, chill for at least a couple of hours before serving.
  • Bring back to room temperature again before serving so that the butter isn't hardened.
