Instructions

  1. Puree the smoked salmon (e.g. in the moulinette). Soak the gelatine in cold water. Whip the cream until stiff. Wash and finely chop the chervil. Heat the butter until it is liquid. Beat the egg yolks with the martini and white wine over steam until they are creamy. Drain the gelatine and stir into the warm egg mixture. Add the salmon, butter, lemon juice, a little salt and pepper and let cool. When the mixture starts to set, carefully fold in the chervil and cream.
  2. Pour the finished mousse into a shallow bowl and let it cool and rest for half a day.
  3. The smoked salmon mousse goes best with a small salad and a mild herb quark as a sauce with a little toast or baguette.

  5. Cut balls out of the mousse with a warm spoon and then serve or briefly put the whole bowl in warm water, turn it out and cut the mousse into slices with a warm knife.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
