Merengue roll with raspberries

The meringue roll was a discovery for me this summer, before that my favorite summer dessert was Pavlova. The roll turns out to be moderately sweet, unusually airy, with any juicy summer berries, this is truly an extraordinary delicacy! By the way, this dessert is absolutely gluten free, which is important for some. Try it, it's delicious!

Ingredients

for roll: egg whites 150 g
sugar 180 g
salt 1 pinch (s)
lemon juice 1 tsp
for filling: cream 33% 200 ml
icing sugar 2 tbsp
fresh raspberries 100 g
peeled unsalted pistachios 50 g
pistachio paste 20 g

STEP-BY-STEP COOKING RECIPE

Step 1

Preparing a meringue base. Separate the egg whites from the yolks. We need about 5-6 eggs. We prepare a bowl for beating, it must be dry and clean, I sometimes wipe the bowl with vinegar for degreasing. Begin to beat the whites at low speed (without sugar) until a light foam forms.

Step 2

Without stopping the work of the mixer, we begin to introduce sugar in small portions. Add a pinch of salt, lemon juice. Beat the whites on medium speed until the sugar is almost completely dissolved and only then add the mixer speed. If you immediately increase the speed of the mixer, the whites will beat up before the sugar dissolves. Beat the protein mass until stable peaks.

Step 3

We shift the meringue to a baking sheet. We distribute it evenly with a spatula or palette. We send to the oven to bake for 20-25 minutes at a temperature of 175 ° C.

Step 4

In the meantime, we make the filling. Whisk the cooled cream with powdered sugar until firm peaks. Then add pistachio paste (optional). You can just add vanilla. I have a natural pistachio flavor in the photo, as the paste has run out.

Step 5

Take the baked meringue base out of the oven and turn it over on a clean towel with the baking paper up. Let it cool. Carefully remove the baking paper.

Step 6

We spread our cream on a meringue base, distribute it evenly, put raspberries (or any other berries) and nuts on top (I have pistachios, but almonds, walnuts are also possible).
