Ingredients
-
¾ cup sugar
-
2 teaspoons cornstarch
-
3 egg whites, at room temperature
-
2 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided
-
¾ teaspoon white vinegar
-
2 cups heavy cream
-
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
-
1 pint whole strawberries, stems removed
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
-
Whisk sugar and cornstarch together in a bowl. Beat egg whites in a second bowl until foamy with a thick, ribbony texture, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in 1/4 of the sugar mixture until completely incorporated, about 30 seconds. Repeat with the remaining sugar mixture, whisking after each addition, until all is incorporated and egg whites are glossy and thick.
-
Add 1 teaspoon vanilla and vinegar; whisk until you can lift the beater or whisk straight up and egg whites form a sharp peak that holds its shape, 2 to 3 minutes.
-
Spoon egg white mixture onto the prepared baking sheet; spread out into a 2x6-inch disk.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Turn off the oven, crack open the oven door, and let the Pavlova cool for 1 hour.
-
Transfer cooled Pavlova to a serving plate.
-
Whip cream, sugar, and remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla in a bowl until soft peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Spread over Pavlova and top with fresh strawberries.
Chef's Note
I said "four egg whites" in the video, but I actually used just three as the recipe shows!
