This meringue recipe shows how to make cream meringues. More information on this meringue recipe can be found at http://www.cookeryskills.com/html/cream_meringues.html.

The most important thing about making meringues is to ensure that the bowls and whisk you are using are very clean and free from grease of any sort.

This meringue recipe requires you to separate the egg whites from the yolks, saving the yolks for another purpose. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Xl_w2KKbiE for how to separate an egg.

A bain marie is used in this recipe - see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Tm32TfPquY for how to make a bain marie.

The ingredients for making 8--12 meringues (depending on size) are as follows:

3 large eggs (whites)
200g caster sugar
250ml double cream
A few pistachio nuts (optional)
40g chocolate (optional)

Don't keep meringues in the fridge for too long or they may lose their crispiness.

You can keep dry unfinished meringue shells in an airtight tin, where they will keep nice and crisp for several days. Just finish them with the cream, etc. when required.

Don't forget that the most important thing is to have very clean and grease-free equipment.
