Pavlova meringue is often revered as the monarch of all baked goods due to its stunning looks and unparalleled flavor, which you could almost consume with your eyes.

For those wishing to craft this marvel within the comfort of their own homes, a tried-and-true recipe is now at your disposal. It enables you to create the perfect bake supplemented with scrumptious cream and signature tangerines. Ignoring such a delightful combination would be nothing short of impossible.

Create an exceptional meringue at home that will leave everyone speechless — a treat that's as aesthetically pleasing as it is delectable.

Ingredients:

Meringue:

  • 6 egg whites,
  • 8.8 ounces of sugar,
  • 1.5 teaspoons of potato starch,
  • a few drops of lemon juice,
  • 1 pinch of salt.

Cream:

  • 1.4 cups of 30% cream,
  • 17.6 ounces of mascarpone,
  • 5 tablespoons of powdered sugar.

Additional garnish:

  • 2 tangerines for decoration,
  • fresh mint leaves for decoration.

Preparation Method:

Step 1. Begin the dessert preparation by making the meringue. Start by whisking the egg whites with a pinch of salt. Once the whites are ready, gradually add sugar.

Step 2. Next, add lemon juice and sieved potato starch to the bowl.

These two ingredients help stabilize the meringue's structure. Additionally, the lemon juice gives the dessert a fresh, snowy color, while the potato starch ensures the meringue becomes delightfully crunchy.

Step 3. Create your meringue using the resulting mixture. Take note that the mixture should be both smooth and shiny. Once the meringue is shaped appropriately, bake it in a preheated oven for 2 hours at a temperature of 248 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 4. While the meringue is baking, prepare the cream. Begin by whisking the cream with mascarpone cheese. Toward the end, add powdered sugar to the mixture.
