Categories     Desserts

Time 3h10m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup sugar, divided
4 large egg whites, room temperature
1 pinch kosher salt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups strawberry, hulled and thinly sliced, plus 2 cups (300 G), hulled and quartered, divided
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
2 cups whipped cream, lightly sweetened
1 cup pound cake, cubed (1/2 in (1 1/4 cm) cubes)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200°F (93°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread ¾ cup (150 G) of sugar on the baking sheet, then bake for 7 minutes to warm. Remove the sugar from the oven and leave the oven on.
  • In a large clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric hand mixer on low speed until foamy, then add the salt. While beating, add the warm sugar 1 tablespoon at a time, gradually increasing the mixer speed, until thick and shiny peaks form, 5-7 minutes. Add the vanilla and fold in until just incorporated.
  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Heap 10 equal scoops of meringue onto the baking sheets, spacing at least 1 inch (2 ½ cm) apart. Use the back of a spoon to create a divot in the center of each mound.
  • Bake for about 90 minutes, until the meringues lift cleanly off the parchment. Once done, turn off the oven and let the meringues cool in the oven for 2 hours, up to overnight. When removed from the oven, the meringues should sound hollow when tapped.
  • Meanwhile, make the strawberry puree: In a small saucepan, combine the thinly sliced strawberries, ¼ cup (50 G) sugar, and the lemon juice and let sit for 10 minutes to macerate, until some of the juices have released.
  • Transfer the pan to the stove and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, until the strawberries have slightly softened but are still vibrant red. Remove from heat and push through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds. Let cool. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • To serve, heap ¼ cup (60 ml) whipped cream onto each meringue nest. Top with 1 heaping tablespoon pound cake cubes and 2 tablespoons quartered strawberries. Drizzle each with 2 tablespoons strawberry puree.
  • Enjoy!

Time 1h45m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 egg whites
1 pinch salt
1 1/4 cups caster sugar
90 g hazelnuts, ground
1 teaspoon vinegar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
185 g dark chocolate
1/4 cup water
1 cup cream
1 pint fresh strawberries
1 1/2 cups cream, extra

Steps:

  • Beat the egg whites with salt until soft peaks form, gradually add sugar, beat until the sugar is dissolved and mixture is of meringue consistency.
  • Beat in the vinegar and vanilla.
  • Line bases of two 20cm springform pans with greased greaseproof paper which has been lightly dusted with cornflour.
  • Spread meringue mixture evenly into tins.
  • Sprinkle ground hazelnuts evenly over meringue in both tins.
  • With a knife or small spatula, swirl hazelnuts lightly through meringue. Smooth over top of meringue with the back of a spoon.
  • Bake in moderate oven 35 - 40 minutes or until meringue is crisp to touch; release sides of pan, cool on the base of the pan.
  • Chop chocolate. Combine with water in top of double saucepan; stir over simmering water until melted; cool.
  • Remove cakes from bases.
  • Place a layer of meringue on a serving plate, flat side down; spread with a thin layer of chocolate. Spread whipped cream over chocolate. Reserve 4 strawberries, wash and hull the remainder, cut in half, arrange over cream.
  • Spread the underside of second meringue with remaining chocolate mixture, place on top of strawberry layer, chocolate side down.
  • Whip extra cream, cover sides and top of cake and if desired, pipe cream decoratively on top.
  • Arrange reserved halved strawberries on top of cake. Refrigerate until ready to serve. If desired, brush strawberries used for decoration with warmed, sieved strawberry jam to give them a pretty glaze before arranging on cake. Cheers, Doreen Doreen Randal, Wanganui.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect meringue, whip the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. This means that when you lift the whisk out of the bowl, the egg whites will hold their shape and not fall back down.
  • When folding the meringue into the other ingredients, be gentle and do not overmix. Overmixing can cause the meringue to deflate and lose its volume.
  • When baking the shortcakes, be sure to preheat the oven to the correct temperature. This will help the shortcakes to rise evenly and prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Let the shortcakes cool completely before assembling the strawberry shortcakes. This will help to prevent the shortcakes from becoming soggy.
  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor. If you can, use organic strawberries to avoid any pesticides or herbicides.
  • Garnish the strawberry shortcakes with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat.

Conclusion:

Strawberry hazelnut meringue shortcakes are a delicious and beautiful dessert that are perfect for any occasion. With their light and fluffy shortcakes, sweet and tangy strawberries, and creamy hazelnut meringue, these shortcakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
