  • About

When making a mousseline forcemeat, mix the ingredients in the proper order. The meat protein, egg, and flavorings are first ground together in a food processor. Only when these ingredients have been reduced to a fine, smooth purée can you add the cream. The cream must be added gradually, in a thin stream, through the feed tube while the machine is running. If you do not follow this procedure, the emulsion may break.

Stop the processor as soon as the cream is fully incorporated into the puréed meat. An overprocessed mousseline can become tough and rubbery when cooked. In addition, overprocessing can incorporate too much air and make a mousseline unpleasantly loose and puffy in texture.
