Meringues with Kiwi
Ingredients
- Egg white 4 pieces
- Cream of tartar ¼ teaspoon
- Sugar 5 oz
- Corn Starch 2 teaspoons
- Grated Lemon Zest 1 teaspoon
- Meyer Lemon Juice 1 tablespoon
- Kiwi 6 pieces
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 355°F (350 degrees Fahrenheit). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, leaving 1 tablespoon aside, along with the lemon zest and cornstarch while beating.
Step 3
Spoon 6 mounds of the egg whites onto the baking sheet, spacing them about 7 cm apart. Make small indentations in the center with a spoon.
Step 4
Place the baking sheet in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature to 250°F (250 degrees Fahrenheit). Bake for about 2 hours until firm and dry. Turn off the oven and leave the meringues inside for 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool for another hour.
Step 5
Peel the kiwi, cut it lengthwise into 4 pieces, then slice thinly. Transfer to a bowl and mix with the reserved tablespoon of sugar and lemon juice.
Step 6
Arrange the meringues on a serving plate and fill the indentations with kiwi. Serve immediately.
