What To Avoid While Making this Recipe?
- Avoid overblending the mixture, as it can result in a runny mousse.
- Avoid using unripe bananas, as they will not provide the desired sweetness and flavor.
- Avoid skipping the refrigeration step, as it helps the mousse set and develop its texture.
- Avoid adding too much sugar, as the natural sweetness of the bananas is usually sufficient.
- Avoid overmixing the mousse once the cream is added, as it can deflate the mixture.
