Italian Meringue

Makes one mile high meringue pie or two (2) 9-inch regular pies

INGREDIENTS

6 large egg whites

11/2 cups sugar 1/2 cup water

1pinch salt

METHOD

1Place the egg whites in the mixer bowl, making sure bowl is dry and clean. Attach the wire whisk to mixer.

2In a small saucepan with a candy thermometer attached, heat the sugar and water to 210°. Meanwhile, turn the stand mixer on speed

3 and start whipping egg whites. When the egg whites are almost at soft peaks, add the pinch of salt. Continue to heat sugar and water to 240°. This is soft ball candy stage.

3With mixer still on, carefully pour the hot sugar liquid into egg whites. Go slow and be consistent.

4After all sugar mixture is added, increase to speed 4 and beat until the stainless bowl is cool to touch, about 5 minutes.

5Scrape meringue onto pie quickly. (Once the meringue sets up, it becomes hard to work with. If this happens, just put back into mixer and whip until stiff peaks form again.)

SERVING SUGGESTION

This meringue sets up perfectly and never weeps. The quantity here will do one enormous “mile-high” pie, or two average. This also works great for a Baked Alaska.
