Meringues in French

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Separate the whites from the yolks, so that even a little of the yolk does not get into the whites.

2. STEP 2

   

   Beat the whites well, add salt, continuing to beat, vanilla sugar. Then gradually, continuing to beat, add powdered sugar and lemon juice in small portions. Beat until thick.

3. STEP 3

   

   Take a star tip, transfer the mixture into a pastry bag and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

4. STEP 4

   

   After depositing, place the meringues in the oven, preheated to 100 degrees Celsius. Bake for 1.5 hours.

5. STEP 5

   

   Ready meringues are easily separated from the paper.

6. STEP 6

   

   Our meringues turned out crispy, and at the same time tender, and melt in your mouth.

7. STEP 7

   

   If desired, you can add a little food coloring to the protein mass when whipping. Then meringues can be obtained in different colors and shades.

For me, not only meringues in the oven are “new”, today I whipped egg whites for the first time, and I really liked whipping them, the structure is so smooth, shiny, soft. I don’t have a pastry bag, I had to make do with improvised means. The dye was replaced with cocoa powder. Mixed carefully. My meringues were ready in 2.5 hours. Crispy on the outside and inside, porous, with a caramel flavor (due to cocoa). The meringues just melt in your mouth. It takes a long time to dry, but it's worth it.
