Instructions

Orange biscuit

Heat oven at 340 F - 170°C (I used fan oven 320 F - 160°C).
In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk whole eggs with sugar and orange zest until double in size.
Add the sour cream and mix with a rubber spatula.
Gently add the flour sifted with baking powder and then olive oil.
Spread the mixture 1 cm thick on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake for 15 minutes.
Out of the oven place the biscuit on a baking sheet, let completely cool, then cut a 6.3 inches – 16 cm round disc and set aside or freez

Granny Smith mousse

Soak gelatin sheets in cold water.In a medium sauce pan, over a low heat, combine lemon juice with Granny smith purée and heavy cream.
Add sugar with Maizena and bring to a boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Pour the mixture over chopped cocoa butter, add wringed gelatin sheets and blend with a hand blender.
Let cool until 78F (25°C), then add Manzana and whipped cream, mixing gently with a rubber spatula.

Mango curd

Soak gelatin sheets in cold water.
Line with acetate strips and cling film a 6 inches pastry ring (16 cm.).
Prepare a syrup boiling sugar, water and glucose syrup.
Then pour the mixture in a slow steady stream over egg yolks.
Cook the mixture over a low heat until 180F (82°C), stirring constantly.
Out of the heat, add wringed gelatin sheets and mango purée.
Blend with a hand blender.
Add heavy cream and blend once again.
Pour into the prepared ring the mango curd, 1.5 cm thick, and the remaining curd in “Tourbillon 100” by Silikomart.Freeze.

Granny smith brunoise

Soak gelatin sheets in cold water.Heat until 180F (80°C) water with orange juice and sugar.
Out of the heat, add wringed gelatin sheets and stir to melt.
Let completely cool.
Diced the apple in small cubes (brunoise cut).
Place an even layer of brunoise over the mango curd, pour enough syrup to cover apple brunoise and freeze (I got 60 g leftovers syrup).

Green glaze

Soak gelatin sheets in water.
Place water, sugar and glucose syrup in a saucepan and bring to 218 F - 103°C.
Out of the heat, add condensed milk and pour the mixture over chopped chocolate (or melted).
Add wringed gelatin sheets, food colours and mix with a hand blender until smooth and shiny.
Refrigerate overnight.

To assemble

Line a 7 inches - 18 cm with cling film and acetate strips.
Pour some Granny smith mousse and freeze a few minutes to set.
Place in the middle the frozen round disc (brunoise downward) and press a little.
Cover with other mousse, place the orange biscuit and freeze.

To serve

Remove the dessert from the ring (do not forget to remove acetate strips) and place on a rack.
Heat the glaze at 85F (30°C) and glaze the dessert.
Lay on top the frozen Tourbillon and garnish as you wish.
Refrigerate for at least 12 hours before serving.

    Hi
    Thank you for the great post. I can’t wait to do it but couldn’t find the ingredients and instruction for the tourbion.
    Can you please tell me how to do it.

    Thank you for your help and have a nice day!

    Regards,

      Hi Nadia……you can prepare a simple panna cotta instead of the mango custard for the tourbillon…or a simple vanilla custard. you can replace with whatever you want.

        Hi! I know this is an old post but anyways… I have tried to use the tourbillon mold many times with curds and panna cotta but they never freeze hard so I can’t unmold them. How do you do it?

          Dear Amanda……there can be 2 reasons why you can’t unmold: either the gelatin in the preparation is not enough, so the custard or panna cotta in not really firm, or the panna cotta or custard is not freezes enough.
          I Have to say that the tourbillon mould is not so easy, because it would be better to use with a chill blaster…but if you do not have, I suggest you when you have to unmold the preparation by the tourbillon, to invert the mold up side down, and gently, pulling from the edges and remove the panna cotta or what.
