Kiwi Meringues Recipes

Steps:

• Whip whites until foamy. Gradually add sugar and whip until very, very stiff, about 5 minutes. On low speed gradually add powdered sugar and whip 10 seconds. Do not over mix!
• With a large star tip pipe onto a parchment paper lined sheet pan either finger shapes or round rosettes. Let dry overnight over a hot oven or place in a 200 degree oven for 4 hours.
• Whip cream with sugar until stiff. Pipe whipped cream on finger shaped meringue and top with another finger to form a sandwich. Tuck sliced fruit and mint leaves into cream laying meringue on its side. For rosette meringues, pipe cream on top an place fruit and mint leaves on cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw a 9-inch circle on the parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gradually add in the sugar, about 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat until thick and glossy. Gently fold in vanilla extract, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
• Spoon mixture inside the circle drawn on the parchment paper. Working from the center, spread mixture toward the outside edge, building edge slightly. This should leave a slight depression in the center.
• Bake for 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack.
• In a small bowl, beat heavy cream until stiff peaks form; set aside. Remove the paper, and place meringue on a flat serving plate. Fill the center of the meringue with whipped cream, and top with kiwifruit slices.
