Best Vegan Chocolate Mousse Recipe - Suburban Homestead EP22

[@BrianProsser]

I can not believe it took me 7 years to find this extremely well-made and interesting Mouse recipe video on youtube. Great Job, Siloé! Can't wait to try it out.

[@allen8iluminada]

That was delicious! Siloe. I have to make some changes to my Choc Mousse since I do not have a Mixer; I put my Chia seeds in my Ninja blender with all the seeds because I could not strain the gel! But it came out good! Thanks!

[@Viejitz87]

i just finish the entire first season, all episodes in a row!!! amazing channel.

[@suburbanhomestead]

+Viejitz87 Thanks. I'm elated to hear you enjoyed the videos so much!

[@racheltomlinson2257]

😍😍😍 perfecto . This was a very educational video. Glad this was a vegan and free from, recipe. One to add to the back of our kitchen cupboard door (difficult to lose a kitchen door, quicker way to find recipes lol) . Will try to see if this one freezes, looks like it could be ice pops for the kids. Thank you for sharing this special treat recipe and how to make it. Can you make amaranth Ice cream?

[@suburbanhomestead]

saving recipes in the back of cabinet door is a great tip! If you try to do this I would recommed using aquafaba (that is the water from a can of cooked chickpeas) instead of the flaxseed gel. It fluffs up much easier and holds its shape way better. I will have to eventually do an updated recipe.

[@Firebuck]

I was just wondering if I could use aquafaba instead. I cook chickpeas a couple times a week so I always have a jar of aquafaba in the fridge. Thanks for the great recipe. :)

[@naturallivingdesigns2383]

Sweet! Thank you Chef Siloé for another wonderful video. Chocolate is one of my all time favorite ingredient.The flax-seed foam was interesting. I will definitely be trying this recipe in the near future. Bon Appétit...

[@suburbanhomestead]

Eco Oasis Thanks my friend. I'm glad you like it. I hope the recipe works for you. It is a bit challenging, though :-)

[@OneYardRevolution]

Thanks for sharing this vegan chocolate mousse recipe, Siloe! It looks delicious. We do a lot of cooking too, and are used to making recipes that take a little work. ;-)

[@dakotabob10]

That looked good Siloe.

[@suburbanhomestead]

dakotabob10 Thanks my friend!

[@suburbanhomestead]

OneYardRevolution | Frugal & Sustainable Organic Gardening I think making complicated recipes now and again can be lots of fun!

[@MonoiLuv]

Wow this makes me want to try the recipe! Amazing work!

[@suburbanhomestead]

I since found that using chickpea aquafaba is much easier and more stable than flax gell

[@CompartilhandoArte]

This is delicious!!! I recomend!! Congratulations Siloe!!!!

[@kassandar]

This recipe is so unusual! I’m so curious to try it, but so many steps!

[@AlbertaUrbanGarden]

Oh my goodness that sounds like a fantastic Vegan Chocolate Mousse!

[@suburbanhomestead]

***** You've got to try it. :-)

[@AlbertaUrbanGarden]

I will have to get my wife's help! I have two left feet in the kitchen!

[@neptuniannymph]

This looks really nice Siloe, with each new video I become a bigger fan :)

[@suburbanhomestead]

neptuniannymph Thank you! That's great to hear!

[@Catesgarden]

Fantastic. We're not vegan at my household but we are GF and we aim for dairy free as much as possible. Thanks for this, will give it a go.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Cate's Garden Nice! I hope it works for you!

[@jeffersonricardo]

Amazing! I want this!

[@suburbanhomestead]

jeffersonrrod It is pretty good!

[@RainbowGardens]

Lovely! Have you made coconut milk with young coconut? It is very nice from young coconut. I've made it from scratch, but you are right - it's good BUT it takes time! I use coconut milk all the time so I always have a shelf stocked full of canned (I use about 1/2 gallon a month). :)

[@suburbanhomestead]

Rainbow Gardens I can't blame you for using canned. I use it also many times. :-) I haven't made coconut milk with green coconut because they are not available here. (opening them would also be a hassle) And they have just a little bit of flesh.

[@RainbowGardens]

suburban homestead If you think you'd like them, check out your local Asian market. I can get them at my market and the green is already removed. The flesh is wonderful.

[@rubysoriano1832]

love it!

[@douglochart1720]

Now that was quite a production ! Thank you for focusing on the traditional way of preparing the many ingredients. We too use cans when we have too but if time is available we prefer to extract the ingredients from the whole foot be it fruit or vegetable. Love the raw sugar touch ! We use a similar style from the Philippines that my wife introduced me to and it is the type of sweet I prefer over refined sugar. I will again be sharing this with my wife and daughter tonight so that the hint can be executed :-)

[@suburbanhomestead]

Doug Lochart :-) Cooking can be fun. I feel refined foods have quite a monotone taste. That is definitely the case for sugar. I'm glad you enjoyed watching.

[@PhoenixRiviera]

THE most complicated and unusual vegan chocolate mousse

[@anitamitchell3452]

I can not wait to try this, thank you

[@suburbanhomestead]

When you do it, use Aquafaba (the liquid from a can of cooked chickpeas). It is much easier to do and works even better than the flaxseed gel.

[@anitamitchell3452]

Thank you, I'll have to go shopping.

[@HealthyVoyagerTV]

terrific!

[@suburbanhomestead]

HealthyVoyagerTV Thanks! and thanks for watching!

[@rawmark]

Great recipe. I think i will try this and use home made aquafaba in place of the flax.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks. I suppose that would work well.

[@rawmark]

suburban homestead Of course it will. I already found a recipe that uses it.

[@amaknightgal]

Mind blown!

[@TheVegetarianBaker]

Looks amazing. :)

[@suburbanhomestead]

+The Vegetarian Baker Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

[@iknowyouwanttofly]

Have you tried using coconut juice as a rooting hormone? I am curious about it but coconut dont grow where I live.

[@plokijuhy1221]

Adorei a receita

[@suburbanhomestead]

+Bob Sed Por nada. Fico feliz que voce gostou!

[@tatianedesimone3192]

oi .. veja se eu entendi certo.. ele diz 3 cups de agua para 1/3 cup isso eh tipo a nossa xícara?

[@suburbanhomestead]

é isso mesmo

[@tatianedesimone3192]

Tks :)

[@wayneirvine7653]

very nice video :)is there nothing we can use the flax seeds for?

[@suburbanhomestead]

+Wayne Irvine I know right! They are miracle seeds!

[@TheNorthwestForager]

Looks amazing Siloé! Very high class. I'd imaging with the flax seed base one may have to be careful with how much of this they eat ;p Thanks for posting!

[@suburbanhomestead]

TheNorthwestForager Thanks Hank! I suppose it would actually be more of a medicine to many people :-)

[@ohyeahinfinite]

Dang. I am lucky that I live somewhere we have a fresh coconut. And someone do sell and they grind it in front of you.. lol. I will make this! Thank you!!!

[@LilianSangali]

Hi, I love your recipe, I want to know if I can use the chia seed instead of flax seed. It works to?

[@suburbanhomestead]

Estilo Lilian Thanks! I am not sure. I have not tried that. I don't know if it will foam up once beaten. I would be good to try and see.

[@LilianSangali]

ok, thanks.

[@LolitasGarden]

Awesome stuff. I'm always impressed with the content you come up with for your videos. I don't know how you do it. I gotta say, it was also nice to see you swinging a hammer. You say you know what I'm thinking when you add flax seed- what should I have been thinking? And just FYI: we have the exact same sugar bowls as each other. Abs.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Lolita's Garden Thanks Ian. I came up with this recipe by combining two concepts I had seen elsewhere, the flaxseed foam and the coconut vegan chocolate mousse. After some trial and error, it worked. And its not everyday that you get to use carpentry tools in the kitchen :-) The same sugar bowls is probably definitive proof that we may be long lost brothers (or cousins at least) How else could you explain that :-) Abs.

[@deserraadkins4201]

Can you make it with milk? Coconut is a no go in my home.

[@suburbanhomestead]

I think using animal based product defeats the purpose of this recipe. It is best that you use a traditional recipe instead.

[@dianamatias7144]

Will young coconut work? Is so much easier to get the meat out.

[@suburbanhomestead]

+Diana Matias I suspect it would! I don't have them much available here.

[@landons2k907]

can I use chia seeds? and if I do how should I adjust the recipe?

[@suburbanhomestead]

I have not tried it with chia, so I can't say, but I think aquafaba would work similarly.

[@landons2k907]

i used a goya can 3 teaspoons of sugar. i have the panela could find it. I used 6 teaspoons of chia. and a lindt 70% chocolate bar. it was prolly the chocolate and and the amount of chia that made it dense. It still tasted good

[@robertm4050]

Chia does not work exactly the same and I don't know if you can strain off the gelatinous substance that it creates when chilled over night compared to boiling out the flax seed. You could always just give it a try if you haven't already and then you have your own recipe.

[@thecavekooks]

I imagine this could also be made with Aquafaba. Although less health promoting than the flax meringue I bet.

[@suburbanhomestead]

You are right. I have tried this with aquafaba and it work way better. It is much easier to get it right and simpler to make. It tends to hold the bubbles better also. So I suggest using the aquafaba. I had developed this recipe before the aquafaba craze, so I would not have known.

[@laylaghaddar1291]

Your so cool! Lol. Awesome video, thanks :)

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks!

[@rosagapi]

😘😘😘😘

[@BlackCat_2]

That looks awesome. Have you ever made it with Carob instead of cocoa? If not - would you? *smiles* I love Carob as a chocolate replacement. Either way will have to try this as my son loves chocolate pudding (or mousse) and I have issues with conventionally farmed chicken eggs. If the eggs are from free range chickens then I am okay. I don't buy them often though due to the much higher price. - Heidi

[@suburbanhomestead]

BlackCat2 Although I haven't tried it with Carob, I would think it could work. I'm not sure though if Carob would need more sugar though.

[@BlackCat_2]

suburban homestead I wouldn't think it would need more (or maybe any) sugar as carob is naturally sweet. :) I find it is good enough for me just as it is but then I am getting older and noticed that too sweet has become part of my vocabulary. :)

[@lesliekendall2206]

In Hawaii, they eat coconuts while still green. The meat is eaten with a spoon and has a texture like a firm yogurt. They cringe at the "over-ripe" coconut "bricks" sold on the mainland US. 😄

[@suburbanhomestead]

Being from Brasil I know exactly what you are talking about. But we have to get by with what we have.

[@lesliekendall2206]

@@suburbanhomestead And the shredded hard coconut is a nice garnish on cakes and candies. So with your recipe I finally know what to do with the rest of it. 😄. And speaking of coconuts, I was having a low potassium issue about a year ago. Very dangerous. The only thing that raised my levels back up was drinking coconut water. 👍

[@suburbanhomestead]

@@lesliekendall2206 Also, instead of using flax for the foam, use aquafaba (the water in a can of unsalted chickpeas). It doesn't need to be heated, is much easier to whip, and is much more stable once whipped. I learned this after making this video

[@lesliekendall2206]

@@suburbanhomestead The aquafaba....very interesting!

[@radhikam3348]

Have you tried a coconut scraper? Like these -> www.amazon.com/Coconut-Scraper-Shredder-Operated-Rotating/dp/B00WJ5161Q You hold each half, with the meat side facing the blade, and turn the handle to scrape out the meat. Its faster and so much easier. You can scrape only the white portion or scrape the shell clean as required. You can store the scraped out meat (will be like grated) in the freezer. Also, I find using warm water helps with getting thicker milk. I know this is an older video, but I do hope you see this comment :)

[@suburbanhomestead]

Seems like a great tool. If I lived in a place that produced coconuts I would definitely use. By the way I have changed this recipe and now use aquafaba (the liquid from a can of chickpeas) instead of the flaxseed gel. It works so much better and is way easier to do.

[@MsK594]

I'm sorry to tell you but you did not make chocolate moose. That's pudding

[@suburbanhomestead]

that is true I suppose. It is all semantics. When I recorded the video I was still inventing the recipe, afterwards, I made it a few times and adjusted the recipe to get a fluffier consistency, The ratios I speak in the video reflect that edit. So what appears on screen is a bit more of a pudding consistency than what the spoken recipe comes out as. It is a lower fat recipe and soy free for those allergic to soy or who want a lower fat option.

[@MsK594]

My absolute favorite choco moose is with avocado/coconut oil/sweetener/cocoa, by far the smoothest and richest one. I subbed your channel, looking forward new recepies :)

[@robertm4050]

I'm sorry to tell you that you didn't spell MOUSSE correctly. With the addition of the faux whipped egg whites it would be considered more like a mousse than a pudding.

[@leanneevans3608]

please a little less dangerous whilst coconut cracking hum. I could not watch that part great video though.
