Preparation time: 20 min + chilling times.
Make a strawberry mixture; 950 g.

For strawberry mousse
450 g strawberries, hulled
150 g castor sugar
3 & 1/2 tsp organic apple cider vinegar or normal apple cider vinegar (ACV)
1 & 1/2 tbs gelatine powder
5 tbs (75 ml ) warm water

Before whipping cream, please rinse and pat-dry the TM bowl. Place TM bowl in a refrigerator for 5 minutes. Chill your cream for at least 6 hours in refrigerator. Follow these two methods. You will end up with beautiful fluffy whipped cream. When you are whipping the cream, keep your eye on TM bowl. One-second is enough to take a risk for ruining the whole amount of cream.
Insert the butterfly whisk into a cleaned and chilled TM bowl and whip the 300 g cream, beat until just soft-peak for 30 seconds / speed 4.
Perhaps you may need 5 seconds more to correct consistency.
Place the whipped cream into container and cover then keep in the refrigerator until required.
Dissolve the gelatine powder with 75 ml of warm water. Set aside in a warm place.
You do not rinse the TM bowl.
Place strawberries, AVC, sugar into TM bowl. Puree for 30 seconds / speed 10.
Avoiding the TM blades, add warm gelatine mixture to pureed mixture for 10 seconds / speed 7.
Press mixture through a fine sieve to remove the fine seeds, if desired.
Then gently fold whipped cream into the strawberry mixture until just combined.
Spoon or pour mix into 10 glasses and refrigerate for 1 hour until firmly set.
