Pungent Plum and Peach Ambrosia

Tuesday, 17 July 2012

Description

Here's a fruit-dominated mousse if there was one. Also dominating is the soft burn of the chile powder as it's blended into the whipped cream. This recipe is extremely simple to make. From the article "Perfectly Pungent Peaches" by Dave DeWitt here.
