Tips
For this recipe, we recommend using mild gorgonzola, which tastes more delicate than spicy. As an alternative to cream cheese spread, you can use the ricottacow and sheep, or the mascarpone for a more fluffy and fluffy texture.
For a better result of the recipe, we advise you to keep out of the fridge the cheeses for a few minutes: this will make them easier to work with.
If you wish, you can add the aromatic herbs or your favorite spices, such as thyme leaves and a black peppercorn grind. You can top the gorgonzola mousse with a drizzle of acacia honey for a truly irresistible sweet contrast.
storage room
The gorgonzola mousse can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 2 days. It cannot be frozen.
