It wasn't pretty, and I need to make sure I cover the ice cream to a uniform depth (one side got a little under-coated and melted faster than the other), but it tasted excellent.kristophinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09362872786928716982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-15986344469532553052010-03-25T08:30:51.819-07:002010-03-25T08:30:51.819-07:00Articubone,

I had prepared a third batch of laminated dough for them but when I got sick last week I put that project on hold. For so long in fact, that I had to toss the third batch of dough. All 5lbs of it, a whole day's work (sigh). At least the second batch came out great, so I do have something to post. <br /><br />Montieth Family,<br /><br />Tricks? Well, a scrupulously clean bowl and whisk. Since any trace of oil or grease will kill a meringue. Have your whites at room temperature before beating, or beat them over a bowl of warm water. Use a copper or stainless steel bowl. If using stainless add a dash of salt, few drops of lemon juice, or a little cream of tartar at the beginning to help strengthen the whites. Then don't over beat. If you beat too much the whites will unfold and become grainy and weepy. <br /><br />Hendoll, <br /><br />I have a kitchen torch but it always over-browns my meringue. I like the light brown color I can get from the oven so I usually reserve my toarch for melting sugar.Ms. Humblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06960224421093634330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-69868099054223480682010-03-25T07:14:36.712-07:002010-03-25T07:14:36.712-07:00I see you saved the very best pic till last.
