FOOLPROOF SWISS MERINGUE



Foolproof Swiss Meringue image

This is a super stable, delicious, easy-to-make Swiss meringue that's perfect as a base for Swiss meringue buttercream or as a topping for any pie you want to make! Because it's whipped over a bain-marie, it doesn't need to be baked - which makes it especially great for my favorite lemon icebox pie (I suggest trying that if you're into lemon meringue pie!). Precision is important, otherwise it's as foolproof as the title says. Hope you love it as much as I do.

Time 20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 ½ cups white sugar
6 egg whites
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar

Steps:

  • Bring 2 cups of water to a simmer in a medium pot.
  • Combine sugar, egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar in the bowl of a stand mixer.
  • Reduce the heat of the pot and place the bowl over the steam. Whisk egg whites lightly until a digital or candy thermometer inserted into the mixture reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 6 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.
  • Place bowl back onto the stand mixer with a whisk attachment. Whisk on high speed until egg whites are cool and stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes. Mixture should hold peaks effortlessly and start balling up around the whisk attachment while appearing silky, shiny, and pure white.
  • Use meringue immediately. It will hold its shape without separating for about a week in the refrigerator.

FOOLPROOF LEMON MERINGUE PIE RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Foolproof Lemon Meringue Pie Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by AzWench

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 3/4 cups sugar
6 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
1/2 cup lemon juice
4 large eggs, separated
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
Baked 9-inch pie crust
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

Steps:

  • 1. In a 2- to 3-quart pan, mix 1 1/4 cups sugar with 6 tablespoons cornstarch and salt. Whisk in 1/2 cup cold water, lemon peel, and lemon juice, blending thoroughly. Whisk in the egg yolks. Add the butter and whisk in 1 1/2 cups boiling water. 2. Set pan over medium-high heat and stir with a flexible spatula until mixture boils, about 7 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and stir filling 1 minute more. 3. Pour filling into pie crust. 4. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup sugar with the remaining 2 teaspoons cornstarch. 5. In a deep bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar with a mixer on high speed (use whisk attachment if available) until very foamy and no liquid whites remain in bottom of bowl. Continue to beat at high speed and gradually add the sugar-starch mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time. Then beat until whites hold stiff, glossy peaks. 6. Spoon meringue onto hot pie filling. With a spatula, swirl meringue to cover filling completely, touching the rim of the pie shell. 7. Bake in a 325° oven until meringue is browned, about 25 minutes. Set pie on rack until cool, about 3 hours. Serve, or invert a large bowl over pie (take care not to touch meringue) and chill up to 1 day.
