Making Tofu Mousse
It doesn’t sound particularly appetizing. To be honest, my reaction to the mere idea of tofu mousse, or using tofu in any kind of dessert, for that matter, was one of disgust. I like tofu, but I’d never tried a tofu-based dessert before. And this is coming from a person who will eat any kind of dessert on the planet. But I have friends who are vegetarian, and this is for them.
Tofu mousse is a much healthier option that any other kinds of mousses (haha), and vegans or those who don’t eat dairy can always tweak this recipe to suit their own tastes.
