Pear in wine Strawberry meringue
  • 1/2 LITER WHITE WINE
  • 4 PEARS, peeled and halved
  • FRESH MILLED BLACK PEPPER
  • 2 TABLESPOONS HONEY
  • SOME LEMON GRASS
  • SOME CINNAMON STICKS
  • 1/2 CUP CREAM
    •

Cook the pears in the wine with lemon grass, cinnamon sticks and pepper until they are soft. Take out the pears and reduce the fluid on a high fire until it becomes a little thicker. Sieve the fluid and add the cream and the honey. Cook again on a high fire until it is a nice sauce. Poor the sauce over the pears.

Split the eggs. Beat the egg whites with corn starch and lemon juice until they are fluffy. Slowly add 80 grams of sugar and mix until all sugar is absorbed. Put small circles of this on an oven dish. Bake half an hour on 150 degrees, lower the temperature to 90 degrees and bake 3 hours more. If possible, put off the oven but leave the meringues in overnight.
Beat the cream with the rest of the sugar, put the cream on the meringues. Sprinkle the strawberries with liqueur and put them on top.
