Ingredients List
- 3 Egg whites
- 1/8 ts Salt
- 1/2 c Sugar
- 1/2 ts Vanilla extract
- 2/3 c Sugar
- 2 1/2 ts Cornstarch
- 1/2 ts Grated lemon rind
- 3/4 c Water
- 1/3 c Fresh lemon juice
- 1 Egg yolk
- 1 1/4 c Raspberries
- 1 1/4 c Blueberries
Directions
Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper; secure with masking tape, and
set aside.
Beat egg whites (at room temperature) and salt in a bowl at high speed of a
mixer until foamy. Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time,
beating until stiff peaks form (do not underbeat). Add vanilla, and beat
until blended.
Spoon meringue into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe into 60
portions onto prepared baking sheet, forming pointed mounds 1 inch wide and
1 inch high.
Bake at 200 degrees for 1 hour or until dry. Turn oven off, and let
meringues cool in closed oven at least 12 hours. Carefully remove meringues
from paper.
Combine 2/3 cup sugar, cornstarch, and lemon rind in a saucepan; stir well.
Gradually add water and lemon juice; stir with a wire whisk until blended.
Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Gradually stir one-fourth of hot lemon mixture into egg yolk; add to
remaining lemon mixture, stirring constantly. Cook over medium heat 1
minute or until thickened, stirring constantly.
Pour lemon custard into a bowl; place plastic wrap on surface, and chill.
