Hazelnut Praline Meringue
Hello Dear Friends,
The 5th recipe of Romantic February has met with you :) In our competition held on February 12 – 13, Burcu Özkaya won the Hotpoint Tea Maker and Toaster by finding the most creative name for our recipe, with the name “Aşk-ı Foam”.
Making meringues is usually intimidating to us. As a matter of fact, if you have found a good recipe and you follow the recipe exactly, there is no difficulty.
The most important trick to follow while making meringues is that egg whites should not be mixed with yellow. You won't be able to fluff the egg whites if they are mixed. Another important point is that the bowl you are whisking must be completely dry. Check if the mixer bowl to which you will transfer the egg whites is dry, if necessary, wipe it with a clean cloth or paper towel.

- Carefully swirl the hazelnuts in the caramel (beware the sugar is very hot) remove from heat and carefully add 5 tablespoons of cream and mix.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the caramel thickens and leave to cool.
- For the chocolate sauce, 75 ml of granulated sugar and cocoa. boil it with water. Pour this mixture over the chopped chocolate and mix until smooth.
