5 IMPORTANT TIPS TO MAKE PERFECT ITALIAN MERINGUE

Published 2020-02-04
Today, let’s go back to basics; I am sharing how to make a perfect Italian meringue.

The BIG 3 for meringue are:
French meringue
Italian meringue
Swiss meringue

Hopefully, I will tackle all of them in the future, but today, it’s all about Italian meringue!
I’m sharing the 5 important tips that are most crucial to making it successful. I hope this video can clear out some of your problems or questions!

Also, using the Italian meringue, I made meringue crunch as well (Some people may call them meringue kisses or meringue cookies!). It is so so easy to make, so stay tuned till the end to see how I made it.

    Your method of piping the meringue by putting it in plastic wrap first is freaking genius!! I know how I will do that from now on, thanks!!

  • I made my first Italian meringue a few days ago to use in a chiffon pie filling. Did surprisingly well for a first timer. Pulled it off on the first go without burning myself from the hot sugar syrup.
  • Hey chef thank you so much for sharing this New subscriber here I always failed my Italian meringue frosting, watching a lot of videos until I came here. Finally after my first trial using your knowledge I made it. Thank you so much.
  • @omeryam6
    Finally I found a channel that shows the tips of cooking ❤️
  • This is by far the most helpful and detailed tutorial I’ve watched on this topic. Thank you!!!
  • Great video! Thank you for showing how the syrup looks as it heats up. What is the red flexible pad you baked the meringues on? Does it act like parchment paper?
  • @hakimabendali21
    I made this today and it turned out perfect , it's not too sweet and holds up very well
  • @vivahat9282
    Couple of questions: 1. I noticed you’ve taken a nonstick pot for the syrup. Can I use a stainless steel one or is the type of pot important? 2. How long does it take for the syrup to go from 108 to 120 degree Celsius?
