Saffron Shrikhand Mousse
Shrikhand is a creamy, thick and saffron-infused dessert that starts with a simple greek yogurt. It's strained overnight to remove the whey, then mixed with sugar and bloomed saffron and topped with whipped cream and chopped nuts. Delicious!
Instructions
- 1
Line a fine-mesh strainer with cheesecloth and set over a deep bowl.
- 2
Scoop the Greek yogurt into the cheesecloth, then gather the cloth around the yogurt and twist the top so the yogurt forms a taut ball. Set in the strainer and refrigerate for 6–8 hours, up to overnight, until the whey has drained and the yogurt is very thick.
- 3
Add the saffron to a small bowl. Pour the hot water over the threads and let soak for 5 minutes.
- 4
Transfer the thick yogurt to a large bowl with the powdered sugar, saffron threads and soaking liquid, and cardamom. Whisk vigorously until well combined and smooth.
- 5
Transfer the shrikhand in the serving bowls or cups and garnish with whipped cream and crushed nuts, if desired.
- 6
Enjoy!
