- 500 g Icelandic Skyr
- 75 g Powdered sugar

👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
For the rhubarb compote: Combine chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, and water in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb has softened and broken down into a compote-like consistency (about 10 minutes). Stir in lemon juice.
💡 Conseils de pro: Adjust sugar to your preference. If rhubarb is very tart, you might need a little more sugar. - 2
Remove the compote from heat and let it cool completely. You can prepare this ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator.
💡 Conseils de pro: Cooling the compote ensures it doesn't melt the mousse when assembled. - 3
For the skyr mousse: In a large bowl, whisk together the Icelandic skyr, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
💡 Conseils de pro: Ensure the skyr is at room temperature for easier mixing. - 4
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
💡 Conseils de pro: Use a chilled bowl and whisk for best results when whipping cream. - 5
Gently fold the whipped cream into the skyr mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can deflate the mousse.
💡 Conseils de pro: Folding ensures the mousse remains light and airy. - 6
Spoon the skyr mousse into individual serving glasses or bowls.
💡 Conseils de pro: Chilled glasses will help the mousse set faster. - 7
Top each serving of mousse with a generous spoonful of the cooled rhubarb compote. Serve immediately or chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
💡 Conseils de pro: Garnish with a sprig of mint or a few fresh berries if desired.
