EASY PAVLOVA

In this elegant dessert, a crisp white meringue layer is filled with whipped cream and fresh fruit. To keep your meringue from being flat and grainy, try beating egg whites until stiff but not dry. Overbeaten egg whites lose volume and deflate when folded into other ingredients. Also, when beating in sugar, beat in about 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well between each addition. Then beat until meringue is thick, white and glossy. Be absolutely sure not a particle of grease or egg yolk gets into the whites.

Time 2h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 egg whites
1 ¼ cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 pint heavy cream
6 kiwi, peeled and sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw a 9-inch circle on the parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gradually add in the sugar, about 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat until thick and glossy. Gently fold in vanilla extract, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
  • Spoon mixture inside the circle drawn on the parchment paper. Working from the center, spread mixture toward the outside edge, building edge slightly. This should leave a slight depression in the center.
  • Bake for 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack.

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 egg whites
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 pint heavy cream
6 kiwi, peeled and sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw a 9-inch circle on the parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gradually add in the sugar, 1 tablespoons at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat until thick and glossy. Overbeaten egg whites lose volumn and deflate when folded into other ingredients. Be absolutely sure not a particle of grease or egg yolk gets into the whites. Gently fold in vanilla extract, lemon juice and cornstarch.
  • Spoon mixture inside the circle drawn on the parchment paper. Working from the center, spread mixture toward the outside edge, building edge slightly. This should leave a slight depression in the center.
  • Bake for 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack.
  • In a small bowl beat heavy cream until stiff peaks form (add sugar if desired); set aside. Remove the paper and place meringue on a flat serving plate. Fill the center of the meringue with whipped cream. Top whipped cream with kiwi fruit slices.

Tips:

  • Use the freshest ingredients possible. The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your pavlova will be.
  • Make sure your eggs are at room temperature before you start. This will help them whip up more easily.
  • Whip the egg whites until they are stiff but not dry. If you overwhip them, they will become grainy and your pavlova will be tough.
  • Gradually add the sugar to the egg whites while you are whipping them. This will help prevent the sugar from crystallizing and making your pavlova grainy.
  • Use a clean, dry bowl and whisk to whip the egg whites. Any grease or residue in the bowl or whisk can prevent the egg whites from whipping up properly.
  • Bake the pavlova in a preheated oven. This will help prevent the pavlova from cracking.
  • Don't open the oven door while the pavlova is baking. This will cause the pavlova to collapse.
  • Let the pavlova cool completely before you top it with fruit or cream. This will help prevent the pavlova from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Pavlova is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make a pavlova that will impress your friends and family. Be sure to experiment with different toppings and flavors to find your favorite combination.
