Cook time: 10 min NON – VEGETARIAN
Cuisine: Italian
INGREDIENTS:
Egg
whites – 3
Granulated
sugar – 5 oz
Water
– 100 ml
Vanilla
essence – 1 tsp.
Cream
of tartar – a pinch
METHOD
Take a deep bottom pan and add sugar
and water. Boil it until it becomes thick in medium flame. While
sugar syrup is cooking, separate eggs placing whites in the bowl of an electric
mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and beat on low to medium speed until
foamy. Add cream of tartar, and whip on medium to high speed until medium to
stiff peaks form, but not dry. With mixer running, add cooked syrup to whites
in a slow but steady stream, beating on high speed. Always be careful when
working with hot sugar. Beat on high speed until steam from hot syrup stops,
about 5 minutes. Beat in vanilla, scrape
down sides gently and beat again for 1 minute. Italian meringue is ready.
