[:en]Earlier today, I told you about my decadent peanut butter butter toasts<\/a>. And now, here I am serving you a spicy dessert. But not just any dessert, a spicy peanut butter mousse! Manba in a weird fashion. Again. I am definitely on a roll with my bizarre recipes today, aren\u2019t I?<\/p>\n

Wait. Don\u2019t run off yet! Give me a chance to sell you on this particular recipe. I promise it will be worth your while. Plus, you must be curious to know when, how and why this crazy recipe came to be, aren\u2019t you?<\/p>\n

To be honest, this spicy peanut butter mousse was born out of my own laziness<\/h2>\n

Two weeks ago, I went grocery shopping for the ingredients to prepare a peanut butter mousse that had been tempting me for days. As I perused the supermarket aisles in search of the perfect local manba, I stumbled upon row after row of \u201cmanba piment\u00e9,\u201d spicy peanut butter. There was no regular Haitian peanut butter in sight. I could\u2019ve headed to the next grocery store. Anyone in their right mind would\u2019ve done so, especially in Haiti. After all, here, that\u2019s what we do. We run from one store to the next in search of the best products at the best prices. That day, however, I simply wasn\u2019t up for a second store visit. I couldn\u2019t find the energy to walk in another place just to grab one jar of regular manba. Such a trip just didn\u2019t seem worth it.<\/p>\n

\"Our<\/p>\n

Yet, I was absolutely set on trying that manba mousse<\/h2>\n

I thus decided to take the crazy lazy road. You all know by now that I am a fan of our Haitian manba piment\u00e9. I convinced myself that it made more sense to purchase something which leftovers I knew I would eat. If I failed my mousse, I would at least still enjoy what was left of the peanut butter jar. This would avoid a lot of waste. Such a choice seemed logical and financially wise.\u00a0 Following that logic, I grabbed my spicy peanut butter jar, dropped it in my basket and took it home with me.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t say that impulse move of mine didn\u2019t scare me. When it came time to prepare my mousse, I did so without telling a soul. I even hid the jar so that no one would realize what I was up to. If my mousse failed, I wouldn\u2019t have any witness to my failure.<\/p>\n

\"This<\/p>\n

Luckily, I did not fail. Believe it or not, my lethargic state at the store that day had led me to one of the best culinary decisions I could have ever made. The piment bouc in the peanut butter was an unexpected surprise that had our taste buds singing. Combined with some lime zest, the spiciness had given that mousse an extra kick. One that I now am convinced any manba mousse shouldn\u2019t live without.<\/p>\n

This spicy and zesty peanut butter mousse is a decadent treat that I urge you to try.<\/p>\n
