  • This classic Pavlova is simply delicious! Named after the iconic Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, this light-as-air meringue dessert is a gorgeous centerpiece for any dinner party. Baked meringue with a crisp, crackly outer shell housing the softest, marshmallowy center. Top that with a mountain of luscious whipped cream and a vibrant array of fresh fruits, a drizzle of lemon curd if desired, and you’ve got yourself not just a dessert, but a full sensory experience!

    Pastry chef tip: whenever making meringue for pavlova, whip it to soft peaks instead of stiff peaks. It’s a bit counterintuitive, but it works because if you whip it to soft peaks, the air bubbles will still have space to “grow” within the meringue structure in the oven without collapsing it. Whipping to stiff peaks will make the air bubbles “pop” with the oven heat and the result will be a less airy, more dense meringue

      @@earthstar2493 The recipe I’m using calls for 6 eggwhites, 1 3/4 cups of superfine sugar, 2 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch, 2 teaspoons of white vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon of rosewater
      Start with eggwhites and sugar only - one scoop of sugar at a time, same method as John’s above - and when you have stiff peaks, gently fold in the rest until thoroughly mixed in. I always add some vanilla too at this stage.
      Preheat at 350, but when you place the meringue in the oven, lower it to 300 F and bake for one hour. Same cooling process as John.
      Macerate your strawberries in the juice of 3 passionfruit and 2 teaspoons of sugar before you whip the cream. When building up, scoop the strawberries on the whipped cream; juice and all.

    It’s definitely an invention from Aotearoa New Zealand, adopted by Australians as their own (it happens quite often with successful Kiwi things… maybe because Australia wanted NZ to become a state there upon Federation, and NZ roundly rejected that proposal!).

    The first frosting I make for a cake, home economics extra credit was a white, egg white based recipe. I followed the cook book directions. no pictures, and applied the marshmallowy textured frosting. I dipped, I swooped, and I swirled the concoction to my satisfaction. It was quite the looker, tall. and proud on the cake plate. Imagine my bewilderment when returning to the cake several hours later only to find just the cake layers remained. The cooked frosting had dissolved into nothing! That's why I appreciate the explanation of each step taken in your videos. The desired result, how to achieve it, and failure to correctly follow directions is explained.

    Australian here. As soon as I saw you were doing pavlova, I wondered if you were going to mention the controversy! I understand that it's originally Aotearoa's but adopted by Australia. A Kiwi chef told me that the desired texture is different between the two. I think the Kiwi one should be more fluffy inside, and the Aussie one more chewy. Happy to be corrected though!

    • @joshdrayton1230
      @joshdrayton1230 15 днів тому +3

      There's really no difference between Aussie and Kiwi pavlovas. The chewy versus marshmallowy thing is really a personal choice; some like it denser and chewier, but a proper pavlova should be light and marshmallow-like. The evidence that the pav originated in NZ is pretty shaky. There are several early published NZ recipes for a meringue-like dessert topped with fruit but a) most are clearly for a harder meringue shell or a sandwich of two meringues and b) most were not called "Pavlova". The earliest recipe to be called "Pavlova" AND be clearly designed to be light and marshmallow-like comes from Western Australian chef Bert Sachse at Perth's Esplanade Hotel in 1935. It's telling that the origins for the WA version are precise and verifiable, whereas the NZ claims are somewhat murky.
