How to make Meringue Roulade

Ingredients you’ll need

Why do we use corn starch in this recipe

Corn starch prevents meringue from shrinking. 

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 300oF (150oC).

Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking tray. The paper must overhang the tray so that you can lift it out. 

In the clean and dry bowl of stand mixer add egg whites and pinch of salt. Whisk on slow speed till white foam forms and add granulated sugar in 3-4 parts. Change speed to medium and continue whisking until stiff peak form and sugar dissolved. 

Add corn starch and whisk for few more minutes.

Spread the meringue mixture evenly with the help of spatula over the paper. Sprinkle sliced almonds on top and put in the oven. Lower temperature to 265oF (130oC) and bake for 45 min. 

Meringue should be crunchy on the top and marshmallowy underneath. 

Gently lift the meringue off the baking tray using the paper and allow to cool on a wire rack.
