Raspberry FoolIngredientswith meringuesServes 8 To buy/find 'impossible' meringues: 325g caster sugar 2 egg whites 1 teaspoon vanilla essence 1 teaspoon malt vinegar 60ml boiling water Note: Makes 80-100 tiny meringues. Substitution: 200g bought meringues Berry fool: 350g fresh raspberries 50g icing sugar, plus extra for dusting 450ml double cream, whipped or 600ml extra-thick, double cream MethodTo prepare/cookCombine the 5 meringue ingredients, in order, in a heatproof bowl standing in 2.5cm of near-boiling water. Using an electric whisk or rotary beater, whisk continuously until the unpromising-looking mix forms a dense, glossy, stiff meringue which will keep its shape. Remove the bowl from the water. Set some wetted non-stick paper on 2 large oven trays. Wet the surface of these again. Put the meringue into a piping-bag with a 1cm star nozzle. Pipe 80-100 small, neat meringues. Bake at 130-140掳C for 1-1录 hours or until crisp. Take as many as you want to the picnic along with the berries, sugar and cream, in insulated containers. Take a bowl along to the site in which to mash everything together. To present Mash the berries and sugar roughly with a fork and trickle this pur茅e into the cream, adding whole or smashed meringues at will. Dust with a little icing sugar and serve in glasses, cups or platefuls. Reproduced with the kind permission of Clare Ferguson from Portable Feasts, Publ: Jacqui Small, 10.99 Back to the recipe page |
