Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup sugar
2 pounds strawberries (to yield about 6 cups)
1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees with rack in lower third. Coat two baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray; line with parchment paper.
  • With an electric mixer, beat egg whites with salt and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Very gradually beat in sugar, adding 1 tablespoon at a time; beat until stiff and glossy.
  • Drop 8 mounds of meringue onto prepared baking sheets; twirl a teaspoon in the center of each to spread to a diameter of 4 inches and create a nest. Bake until dry but still white, about 1 1/2 hours, rotating baking sheets halfway through; let cool on sheets.
  • Use a small paring knife to hull and quarter strawberries. In a bowl, toss strawberries with sugar; let stand, at least 30 minutes. Spoon into nests.

I'm not a huge fan of meringue, but these nests were surprisingly good. The sweetness of the strawberries balanced out the meringue perfectly.
