Apple Sambucus

60 minutes
Apple sambuk is a light and delicate dessert that comes to us from Russian cuisine. Its history roots in the tradition of making light fruit mousses, valued for their refined texture and pleasant, refreshing taste. This dessert harmoniously combines the sweetness of apples, the slight acidity of oranges, and the softness of whipped egg whites. Added gelatin gives it firmness, while proper cooling makes sambuk an ideal treat on hot days. Its lightness and fruity freshness make it a great ending to a meal, especially after hearty dishes. Sambuk can be decorated with fresh fruits or nuts and served with mint or a small amount of berry sauce to further enhance its natural flavor. It is an elegant and simple dessert that will delight both gourmets and lovers of light sweets.
