Redcurrant Espuma
Espuma is the Spanish word for spume/foam. The consistency is mousse like but it is frothed up with nitrogen in a cream whipper *. This allows desserts without eggs or heavy cream.

You have one of the best blogs I’ve seen in a long time. Keep up the good job:)
Wow, this looks very good, I’ll have to keep an eye out for red currants around here.
I love the simplicity of gorgeous color of this redcurrant espuma. Redcurrants aren’t too easy to find here in the States, but our Trader Joe’s markets sometimes carries them. I’ll be on the lookout now. Thanks, Ulrike!
That’s beautiful! I love the vibrant red color and it looks like it would be the perfect dessert for a hot summer day.

I love currants. Unfortunately, I have the wait till next year to be able to make this dessert. Here, in the US Northern Piedmont, red currants ripen in my garden in June.
I don’t have a cream whipper though, and wonder if there are any alternatives to buying one: I rather not have another kitchen gadget, as I normally whip my cream using a hand-held whipper.
But I do love the simplicity and color of the dessert, and bet it would be refreshing, tart and flavorful. Perfect for summer.
