Whipped basil and white chocolate ganache

Briefly immerse the basil leaves in boiling water and immediately quench in ice water.

Strain the mixture and emulsify with the white chocolate.

Finish emulsifying with the cold Stand & Overrun (2) and add the lime zest.

Leave to rest in the fridge for 24 hours before whipping.

Deglaze with the hot Cream Plus Mascarpone in which we have infused the vanilla and let it reduce.

Once it is warm, add the salt and emulsify with the noisette brioche butter.
