Ingredients

Quantity Unit Ingredient

For the Mousseline:

500 g Oldenburger Whipping Cream, 35% fat
75 ml lime cordial
100 g sugar
5 leaves of gelatine
500 g sour cream

For the Port Wine Figs:

50 g muscovado sugar
375 ml red port wine
2 scraped-out vanilla pods, dried and finely ground
30 persian figs OR
10 fresh figs
xanthan water
2 bunches of fresh mint leaves
500 ml sunflower seed oil

For the Garnish:

mint tips
whole roasted almonds, chopped

preparation

Beat the Oldenburger Whipping Cream to medium peaks and refrigerate it. Mix the lime cordial and sugar and heat to 50°C, completely dissolve the gelatine in it, then combine with half of the sour cream and mix until smooth. Immediately work the rest of the sour cream into the mixture and fold in the whipped cream. Pour into prepared moulds and refrigerate for at least four hours.

Making the Port Wine Figs

Dissolve the sugar in the port wine and add the powdered vanilla pods. Vacuum with the figs and let marinate for 12 hours. Then remove the figs and bind the mixture with xanthan water. Thoroughly mix the mint leaves with the sunflower oil and heat to 85°C. Pour through a sieve into a tall container and let stand for about 12 hours. The remined mint oil can be kept in a snap-lid jar in a cool place for up to 10 days.


The Final Touch

Carefully remove the mousseline from the moulds and dress. Arrange the figs and mint tips around it. Pour the port wine mixture on top and then dribble on the mint oil. Garnish with the almonds. Finally, sprinkle with roasted fig coffee.
