Almond Meringue - Master Chefs |
|
|
| Ingredients: |
- 6 Egg whites, at room temp.
- 2 1/2 Tbs Sugar
- 2 1/2 cup Sugar, powdered, sifted, - plus more as needed
- 3/4 cup Almonds, ground, blanched
|
| Directions: |
- Preheat the oven to 325 F. Cut out three 10-inch parchment paper circles and one 10-inch cardboard circle. Set the parchment circles on baking sheets.
- Beat egg whites to soft peaks and gradually add 2 1/2 tablespoons of sugar and continue beating until stiff. Combine 2 1/2 cups of powdered sugar and ground almonds; fold into egg whites.
- This mixture can now be used to form layers, or designs or whatever your choose. Simply spoon mixture into a pastry bag fitted with the tip of your choice, and pipe your designs onto parchment paper covered baking sheets.
- Dust lightly with powdered sugar (optional.) Then bake the your meringue until crisp and very lightly golden (for designs about a half inch thick, it takes 25 to 30 minutes.)
- Cool on the finished baked meringue on racks.
