When I moved to New York from Belgium to work as theExecutive Chef to the Belgian Ambassador of the UN, I often served my chocolatemousse in the official lunches and dinners until it ultimately became mysignature dessert: secretaries of honorary guests would call in advance for thespecial dessert request. Soon after, I started receiving orders for my mousseintended for private events, and that is how it all began.
Growing up in Belgium, it was in the kitchen that wouldspend most of my time watching my grandfather Jozef, a local baker in OldAntwerp. Those were the days where everything was made fresh daily and sourcedfrom local farmers. I made my very first batch of chocolate mousse when I was 8years old following “bompa” Jozef’s traditional techniques and a simple, yetsecret, recipe. It was only later in life that I came to realize that thoseprecious moments next to my grandfather in the kitchen had taught me much morethan just great recipes, but priceless life lessons, including my standards asa professional Chef.
Mojo—a short cut for Mousse by Johan—brings the magic of theold times and it is in this spirit, that today i invite you to have a taste ofmy childhood, a taste of real Belgian chocolate mousse, a taste of Mojo: Puremagic!
I hope you enjoy it as it represents my every path to gethere. From my Belgian heart to your savory taste buds. Chef Johan
