Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 large egg whites
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
3/4 lb strawberries
2 tablespoons sweet Sherry
1/2 cup well-chilled heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 225
  • Bake in middle of oven until crisp and firm, about 1 1/2 hours. (If weather is humid, cooking time may be longer.) Cool meringues completely on baking sheet in turned-off oven or on a rack and carefully peel off parchment.
  • Halve some small strawberries for garnish. Slice remaining strawberries and stir together with Sherry and remaining tablespoon sugar in a small bowl. Macerate 20 minutes. Drain strawberries in a sieve set over a bowl, reserving syrup. Beat cream in a chilled bowl until it just holds stiff peaks and beat in reserved syrup. Spoon cream mixture over meringues and top with strawberry slices. Garnish plates with halved berries.
