After I wrote the post about kabocha, I received an email from a blog reader asking for the Kabocha Mousse recipe.
Katie’s Kabocha Mousse
Serves one, unless you’re insane and decide to share. If you can’t find kabocha, butternut squash and pumpkin work too. Kabochas are shy guys, but many Asian markets carry them.
- 3/4 cup cooked kabocha, mashed (here’s how to cook a kabocha)
- 1/16 tsp salt
- just under 1/4 cup milk of choice
Blend the ingredients in a blender or food processor (I use as a Magic Bullet and recommend doubling or tripling the recipe, if using a bigger blender, for smoother blending).
Chocolate-Covered Kabocha-Covered Meal of the Day
This pudding looks delish, Katie. When I find a kabocha, I will remember this recipe.
Have a great week!
Mission while I’m down in Florida: FIND A KABOCHA SQUASH! Wish me luck 🙂
I like your chocolate mousse best, chef! 😀 Uggghhh, I couldn’t get hold of 100% rice milk here in Perth, the ricemilk here has VEGETABLE oil added to it, umm unappetizing?!!!
Agh! You make me wish I could find kabocha so bad!
Ahhh, looks so delish, Katie! I need to find some kabocha really fast!
That looks awesome – I must try some of your great ideas!
hahaha
i thought i was the only one who licked blender blades 😀
All this crazy kabocha everywhere. I have yet to find it in my town. Booo.
LOL, my brain totally overwhelms me sometimes! I have got to get a kabocha. Everyone is talking about them these days. I guess I missed out when you told why you eat everything with chopsticks–so, why do you?:) My daughter would love that!
I’m still going with Johnny Depp 🙂
Chace is SO hot but I heard he once stated “Sarah Palin is hot” so that takes away from personality points imo
but I am still a fan! *swoon* 🙂
Awesome ideas for kabocha. I’m going to have to try these out.
I looove Kabocha too–soooo good :D.
We sometimes blend it with water and add cinnamon+adzuki beans + sweet rice to make a porridge of sorts. Similar to that kabocha mousse with those additions. I must try it with ice cream and in my oats…maybe even smoothies?
Hope you have a fabulous Monday, Katie!
Pureed squash is oatmeal is amazing, its my favorite way to eat oats. I love the creativity you have with blending things!

All the ideas are amazing! I must find more Kabocha!
that lunch sounds amazing. cherry tomatoes are my favorite! i love grape tomatoes too.
and kabocha with granola and milk sounds so good. i bet it would be reallyyyy good with rice milk. i’m SO missing out by not buying kabocha! i’ve only had it a vegan restaurant once, in a japanese curry. it was delicious. you should put it into a curry sometime!
anywho, this post has definitely put kabocha at the top of my “to get” list! 🙂
