Haz tus Propios Merengues (página 2 de 2)Home >> Recetas
Página: 1 2 Página precedente Debes tener una crema cream muy dura de un blanco intenso. Llena una duya con la crema de merengue. Coloca papel encerado en una charola de hornear y haz pequeños montículos de igual tamaño. Trata de no mover la duya al exprimir y el merengue formará bonitos montículos circulares. No es pasta de dientes y no quieres churros white slugs. No necesitas mucho espacio entre ellos ya que no expandirán mucho. dependiendo del uso que les darás, puedes puedes hacer barritas o incluso un disco. Mis 200 gr de claras de huevo coladas me dieron para dos charolas completas de merengues. Calienta el horno a 105°C/220°F y hornea como 90 minutos. Si tu horno funciona aún con la puerta abierta, atora un recipiente de aluminio para que quede entreabierta y el vapor de los merengues pueda escapar, así se secarán mejor. Pasan dos cosas cuando horneas merengues. Primero la espuma de azúcar/huevo cambia su estructura. Luego toda el agua se evapora, dejando una estructura quebradiza. Dependiendo del tamaño del merengue que hagas, puedes tener que dejarlo a secar en el horno a 80°C con la puerta entreabierta para que se sequen perfectamente. No dudes en tomar uno y probarlo. El interior debe estar seco pero puede estar ligeramente chicloso, como un caramelo. ¡Te deseo éxito con tus merengues! Este es el merengue más simple y el más natural para preparar en casa, conocido en el oficio como 'Merengue francés' o 'Merengue común'. También existen 'Merengues italianos' y 'Merengues suizos' que toman una técnica un poco más compleja. 657352 visitas ¿Te gusta este artículo? Envíame un comentario o ve mis artículos más populares.

Meringue brought back sweet memories of my mother. She would make meringue whenever she has lots of egg whites left from using the yolks for other recipes.I'll make some following this recipe and let my mother try them!- #3

Sometimes my meringues are perfect but other times they leave a toffee like lump that gets stuck in the teeth. Why is this as I can't work out if I have done something wrong. Thank you- #9

I've searched several times for a "good" recipe, as I had lost one from my mother's Hoosier Inn restaurant in Indiana in the 1940s. How delighted I was that someone had posted the hyperlink to this recipe at another site.I love knowing the reason behind why you should do something & you certainly explained this extremely well. Plus, the pictures are excellent. Thank you so much!P.S. Now if you have a recipe for a Crustless Cheesecake (not a cheesepie, that most of the recipes 'actually' are, I would love it. lol- #11

THANKS for posting! it is incredibly useful with the details and pictures! keep posting please! my first attempt at meringue failed miserably because I did not use an electric mixer... I hope now with your tips I can bake real meringues:)- #12
- Comment by Florence
Is it possible to make the meringue ahead (1 hour of so)of time? ..... because I have always made it when I was ready to put it in the oven, and the noise of the beating of egg whites has always been unsatisfactory to me!- #13
- Comment by Dennis
Hi, thank you for a very imformative article! If you wish to use cream of tartar, is there a certain amount to use? Also how important is it that the egg whites are room temperature vs refrigerated before you whip them up? Thank you for your help. Dennis- #14

Very helpful tips and pictures. I love meringues.- #16
- Comment by Tracy
Meringues are naturally a lower calorie cookie but since I'm really watching my sugar I decided to substitute half the sugar with Splenda. Also added 3 drops of yellow food coloring and 1/2 tsp banana flavoring (to two egg whites) along with 3/4 cup chopped walnuts. This made wonderful Banana Nut Meringues that I'll be taking to my next club function! thanks for the great photos!- #17

- Comment by Phyllis Roedername
I enjoyed reading about how to make the meringue. My problem is that it usually "weeps" after I take it out of the oven (lemon meringue pie). What causes the weeping and how can I prevent it? With that answer, I will have the perfect pie! Many thanks!!- #19
- Comment by Dalline
I loved your article but was trying to find out about merinques on pie. When to put on cold or hot pies and what to do to keep them from seeping after they have been on a while. Any help will be great.Thanks- #20

Can this be done without sugar or sugar substitutes?Thanks- #24

Steve, I don't think you could really do meringue without sugar. If it's possible, I don't know how, sorry!- #25

Yvonne you have done the hardest part, making the meringue. Just let them bake in peace and on a low heat and they will be just fine. Good luck!- #27
- Comment by Sarah
I'm in despair! No matter how carefully I whisk, once I get my egg whites to the 'standing in peaks' stage, once I start adding sugar, even just a little sprinkle at a time (usually I'm using a mixture of caster and icing sugar), the whole lot just turns to runny liquid. What on earth am I doing wrong? A neighbour told me I had overbeaten the eggs, but someone else told me to whisk them til they wouldn't drop out of the bowl and I can never get to that stage before they turn runny, they will ALWAYS just slide out of the bowl! Please help.- #28

I loved your article about meringue, but am interested in meringue for pies, my crust always gets soggy, because my meringue weeps, I have never beat the egg whites completely stiff before adding the sugar, would this cure my weeping of the meringue other wise the pies turn out fine. I usually add the sugar when the egg whites come up in a little stiff piece that stands up. Thanks for any help. Dalline- #30
- Answered by fx
Sarah, there are lots of things you can try. First use only the cleanest pots, whisks and above all, egg whites. Then let your egg whites age in the fridge for a good week before trying. If you have an all-copper pot, use it to whisk the whites. Otherwise add a drop of lemon to stabilize them. Add the sugar gradually. You might want to try an electric whisker. I hope this helps!- #31

- Comment by Una Smith
Here is a random use for meringues. I made little meringue drops to use as the base of icing roses to decorate a birthday cake. I put them in the cold oven to dry out of the way, then forgot they were there and turned on the oven. Oops. Well, the meringues were still moist inside and they puffed up into ... mushrooms! Each one with a cap and stem, bent at its own funny angle. I decorated them like psychedelic toadstools, using food coloring and a paintbrush, and stuck them all over the cake. It was a huge success.- #34

Una, this looks like a terrific discovery, those popping meringues. Do you recall the size of the drops, the temperature and time you baked them?- #35

I'm really rather glad that I found your website, Ive been reading through it and its now one of my favorites. As for your meringues, They work out a treat, An absolute treat! I'm going to tie it into the Pavlova recipe my grandmother taught me to see if it will help ( Pavlova is basically a giant meringue)- #37
- Comment by judy b
Great article and helpful because I made a chiffon cake and it used 7 yolks. My ownly problem is I have no scale to weigh and wish I knew how many whites to use. like 4 whites and 2 cups of sugar---something akin to that. But learned to keep oven ajar too. Thanks judy- #39

Dear FX,Thank you for your clear advice for the meringue. I successfully made them here - even though it rained throughout the day! :). I gave them a little coffee flavor. I want to make some candies and confections for Christmas but don't have a candy thermometer yet.

Baked a pavlova for almost two hours in a gas oven; opened the oven to check if dried, closed the oven as the top felt crispy, cooked and dry. Looked through the glass door oven without opening the oven, and the pavlova top crumbled and looked hallow inside even when left in the oven to cool. What had caused this? How could the entire Pavlova be intact without this crumbling problem. Your help would be much appreciated as soon as possible as a relative of mine would like me to show her to prepare this great recipeMany thanks in advance.

Just brilliant. I love the photos and the clearly defined method for making french meringues! I'm going to make them this weekend !!- #52
- Comment by Zach
Word to the timid: I just made these without a scale, parchment paper, piping bag, baking sheets, or calibrated oven (does that feel like 200 degrees? Sure!) and they came out perfect. Exactitude is apparently unnecessary; my egg whites were 8 days old and filtered, though.- #54
- Comment by Rutpak
Great blog and great photos, nice change from many US food blogs.I did meringues yesterday and they was excellent. I add more lemon and whisk by hand (it was quite tiring) two days old filtered whites. After a night my meringues was ever more tasty. I am thinking about making ragù bolognese, it will be second time I'd made it. First time I made it using very similar recipe to yours. This time I thinking about not using milk and using vegetable stock instead of chicken.

- Comment by sue lyon
milles mercies. i made meringues many years ago and had forgotten how to do it. i actually had done them in my copper bowl. this time i had a pint of eggwhites just sitting in the fridge because i had made several key lime pies. i tried, actually the meringues are in the oven now. it was so long ago that i had a pastry bag that this time i cut a small hole in a ziplock bag and used it as my forcing bag. it worked perfectly. oh thanks you again. your recipe was easy, clear and just delightful.- #58
