La Meringue
Heat the oven to 100 °C, conventional oven setting (no fan). Whisk the whites, add the sugar gradually and continue until you get a firm and shiny meringue. Gently add the starch and lemon juice.
The Plaque
Spread the meringue in an irregular disc of 22 cm, about 2 cm thick. Cook 90 minutes. Turn off and let dry for at least 1 hour in the oven.
Make the pink cream
Whisk cream, mascarpone and icing sugar. Stir in jam and zest in two strokes of spatula to preserve marbling.
The Riot
Break the cold meringue into five or six large pieces. Lay flat on the dish, add large spoonfuls of cream and spread the raspberries. Two shards can rest on the cream, never in height.
At the last minute
Assemble just before serving, then break and lightly mix a serving with a spoon.
Conservation. Keep meringue alone in the dry. Keep cream and fruit fresh and assemble just before serving.
Namely. Recipe proposal: follow the quantities and texture marks of the card. Indicative times. The rendering depends on the ingredients and materials used. The objects of the photographic decoration remain out of the dish.
A crunchy meringue and a montage at the last moment
The plug uses a meringue mounted directly with a whisk, without a bain-marie. Fold in the sugar gradually until a firm and shiny texture is obtained. Keep the disc about 2 cm thick to follow cooking from 90 minutes at 100 °C. Then let it dry for at least an hour in the oven turned off and opened. Wait until the meringue is cold before breaking it; add cream and raspberries just before serving.
Baking tips for this recipe
- Use a clean bowl and whisks, without a trace of fat, to whisk the whites.
- Follow the order of sugar addition and step-by-step temperatures: they depend on the preparation.
- Stop whipping to the texture described in the recipe; do not add any cooking or drying that is not provided for in the steps.
Substitutions and variations
For fresh fruit, you can replace raspberries with the same weight of strawberries cut into small pieces and well drained. This variant does not apply to a gelled puree or jam.
To vary a zest, choose another citrus fruit washed and intended for this use, keeping the same amount. Does not automatically replace juice, whose acidity can change the preparation.
