I also like to drizzle a small amount of strawberry glaze over the strawberries - you may make this using blueberries or raspberries also - servings is only estimated :) Ingredients:
4 egg whites, room temperature |
1 teaspoon cream of tartar |
1 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon cornstarch |
1 teaspoon white vinegar |
1 1/2 cups whipping cream, unwhipped (can reduce to 1 cup) |
3 -4 tablespoons confectioners' sugar |
2 cups strawberries, hulled and quartered (or to taste) |
Directions:
1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a copper or stainless steel mixing bowl whip the egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy.
3. Gradually add in the 1 cup sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form (about 8 minutes).
4. After the whites have been whipped fold in cornstarch and white vinegar.
5. Spread the meringue out to a 10-inch circle on the parchment paper leaving a shallow indentation in the middle (to allow the whipped cream to sit on).
6. Bake at 300 degrees F for 30-40 minutes.
7. Allow to cool.
8. In a chilled mixing bowl beat the whipping cream until just soft peaks form.
9. Add in 3-4 tablespoons confectioners sugar and continue beating until thickened.
10. TO ASSEMBLE; top the baked meringue (pavlova) with the whipped cream then top with chopped berries.
