Pavlova Anyone ?
My suggestion for Meringue is to use the warming drawer of you stove / oven to set the meringue.
For Valentines it was Pink Hearts . . . and for St. Patrick's it will be Green Clovers. I make meringues as treats for some "Special Days" and find them quite well received; I guess we all have a sweettooth somewhere. The nice aspect to them is the very Low Fat treat, almost none, and not registering on many diet restriction lists either.
Using the Warming Drawer keeps the oven free, uses less power, and they can sit there all night, or longer, drying.
As for the Pavlova, I like mine ot quite dry, sort of squidgy in the centre????
Finally,
