Yield Makes 12 to 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Strawberry filling
1 pint strawberries
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon kirsh
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 plain Gênoise Sheet
Covering meringue
1/2 cup (about 4 large) egg whites
2/3 cups sugar
Confectioners' sugar for finishing

Steps:

  • 1 To make the filling, rinse the strawberries. Select 4 or 5 of the best berries to use for decoration and refrigerate them. Hull and slice the remaining berries. Combine the sliced berries with the sugar, kirsch, and lemon juice in a bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • 2 Drain the berries, reserving the juice. In a medium bowl, whip the cream with the vanilla. Fold in the berries.
  • 3 To assemble, remove the paper from the bottom of the gênoise and place the layer right side up on a clean piece of paper. Moisten the layer with the reserved strawberry juices. Spread with the filling and roll it up, wrapping it tightly in the paper. Place the roll in the freezer on a baking sheet while you prepare the meringue.
  • 4 Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • 5 Whisk the egg whites and sugar in the bowl of an eclectic mixer, place over a pan of simmering water, and whisk until the egg whites are hot and the sugar is dissolved. Attach to the mixer and beat with the whip attachment on medium speed until cooled.
  • 6 Place the cake roll on a baking sheet and cover with meringue, reserving a little meringue for decoration. Pipe several rosettes of meringue along the top. Dust the meringue with confectioners' sugar.
  • 7 Place the cake on the center rack in the oven to color the meringue, about 1 to 2 minutes; turn the pan several times so the meringue colors evenly. Cool, then chill the roll.
  • 8 Trim the ends of the cake on a diagonal. Slide the roulade onto a platter and decorate with the reserved strawberries.

STRAWBERRY LEMON MERINGUE ROULADE



Strawberry Lemon Meringue Roulade image

This is a meringue that rolls like a sponge cake. You can use any type of fruit. My British husband introduced me to this wonderful dessert. His friend, Kathy, served it for Christmas because she knew I was a celiac. This is my spin on a great British classic: the roulade. A lighter alternative to pie; you don't have to...

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 8

MERINGUE
6 large egg whites
1 c caster sugar
FILLING
12 medium fresh strawberries, sliced thin
1/2 pkg lemon curd pie filling (or make your own)
1 pt heavy cream, cold
1/4 c caster sugar

Steps:

  • 1. MERINGUE: Whisk together 6 large egg whites to soft peaks then gradually add caster sugar by teaspoons until all is combined and stiff peaks form. Finger test the meringue to ensure it is free of sugar granules. If the texture is grainy, you must continue whisking until the mixture feels silky between your fingers.
  • 2. BAKING THE MERINGUE: Line a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan with wax or grease-proof paper. Let the paper extend 2-3 inches beyond the pan lip (you will use this to flip the meringue later). Lightly grease the wax paper with vegetable oil using a paper towel, cover all areas with a light veil of oil. Spoon the mixture onto the grease proof paper, smoothing with a spoon and working the meringue level and to all four corners of the pan. Your meringue will not be smooth but it should be evenly distributed with uniform thickness and in the shape of your pan. Bake at 300 deg F (150 deg C) for 25 minutes. Remove promptly from oven. Do not overbake. Flip the meringue onto another sheet of wax paper that has been lightly dusted with caster sugar to prevent sticking. Allow 30 minutes for the meringue to completely cool before attempting to fill or roll it into the roulade shape.
  • 3. FILLING: You may use prepared lemon curd, lemon pudding for pie filling, or you may make your own curd. If you use prepared lemon pie filling, it will take 1/2 what is required for a 9" pie or 1/2 package prepared. Slice fresh strawberries extremely thin for layer 2, set aside. Whip heavy cream in your mixer at high speed while adding 1/4 cup of sugar by teaspoons until desired consistency is achieved. Whipped cream should be thick and dense for this recipe. Hint: 36% cream or higher works best. In the U.K., they use "double cream" which is about 42% cream compared to our U.S. 36% old fashioned heavy whipping cream.
  • 4. ASSEMBLY: Remove the top wax paper layer from the cooled meringue. Drop lemon curd by spoonfuls (about 8 tablespoons) and then gently spoon this evenly across the meringue surface. Add sliced strawberries. Drop whipped cream by spoonfuls and smooth in the same manner as the lemon curd.
  • 5. ROLLING: With the bottom sheet of wax paper, move the meringue toward you and fold over the first two inches to start the rolling process. Always roll with the paper, do not remove it. You are removing the paper as you roll the dessert. Gently roll the dessert end over end until it resembles a jelly roll with one turn left. Grab your serving platter and lift the roulade onto the plate. When the roulade is on an even plate surface, complete your final turn and discard the wax paper.
  • 6. This can be made up to one day prior to serving. This photo was taken after it had chilled just one hour. I suggest 4 hours to chill and set before serving.
