  3. Make sure to thaw the frozen peas completely before blending to ensure a smooth consistency.
  4. Refrigerate the mousse for at least 1 hour before serving to allow it to set and develop its full flavor.
  5. Don’t skip the garnish – the extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and herbs adds a nice finishing touch to the dish.
