Meringue Tower with Strawberries
Why not be original this Christmas with a delicious meringue christmas tree. Got some deliciously juicy strawberries and got busy baking. This dessert is a feast for the eyes! I really enjoyed making it. Give it a try.
ΥΛΙΚΑ
For the meringues
- 180-200 grams egg whites, (approx. 5 eggs)
- 250 grams granulated sugar
- ½ Tbsp of cream of tartar, or 1 Tbsp of vinegar
- 1 sachet of vanilla
Optional
- 100 grams pistachios, coarsely ground
- 1 Tbsp of corn flour, finely chopped, finely ground
To assemble the dessert
- 500 ml of cream
- 80 grams icing sugar
- 1 sachet of vanilla
- 1 kg of strawberries
- 3-4 Tbsp of pistachios
ΜΕΘΟΔΟΣ ΕΚΤΕΛΕΣΗΣ
- Beat the egg whites until they are fluffy. Whip the egg whites until they are smooth.
- If you want meringues with pistachios, mix them with the corn flour and use a single spatula to carefully fold them into the meringue.
- Using a spoon, spoon 16- 18 tablespoons of meringue into two baking pans lined with non-stick paper. Bake for 2 hours at 100˚ C in the air. Turn off the oven and leave the meringues in until the oven is completely cool.
- To assemble the dessert, whip the cream with the icing sugar and vanilla until thick. Put some cream in the base of a platter. Place 6-7 meringues on top in a circle. Cover with the cream and then strawberries.
- Continue with 4 meringues, cream, strawberries. Repeat with 3 meringues and finish with one on top.
- Sprinkle with chopped pistachios. You can make the dessert up to 6 hours in advance. Store in the refrigerator.
