Cool Video, Thanks I was curious how it was made I didn't understand when I read a recipe. I will have to look up a recipe for meringue though. Nice video though. Let me go like this.
-
Your video leaves out a great deal of information while making the meringue
measurements , temperatures and procedures......all of this info is essential especially for someone starting out........you yourself must be an amateur .

The boy did nothing but eat the final product.

I thought for my whole like it was fried icecream !!!! Now I see that its not that and its really quite simple !
-
i only want to make this to see how much cooking skill i have. apparently you need 8 points in cooking to make this dessert.

@KBAFourthtime The ice cream stays cold. The meringue is a really good insulator, because its full of air, so it keeps the ice cream cold
-
When it comes to using a blowtorch, how do you use it to brown the meringue without melting the ice cream? Can sherbet be substituted?
-
its called a baked alaska because it was "invented" in 1876, the same time as the recently acquired American territory, Alaska. I am Canadian, but i know that February 1 is Baked Alaska Day in the United States.
Fun Fact (:

This video fails to show how to make the meringue - what were the amounts of ingredients? It appears she beat it over a double boiler and was monitoring the temperature but there is no mention of any of that!! And she doesn't explain how you would make a baked alaska in the oven.
i love how the guy didn't help out at all, but ate it at the end.
