Preparing Perfect Meringues By Yourself Easily

Meringues are among the ideal options for desserts. These sweat treats are very easy to make and can be used in combination with various other ingredients to create great desserts. Meringues can be of different types, like, Italian, Swiss, French, etc. You may prepare the one you like, if you know the right methods. Here are some tips that will help you in making regular meringues at home.

Tips for Making Meringues

Before starting with the actual recipes for making meringues, there are some basic factors that you have to keep in kind. The following are some guidelines that will help in making proper meringues.

One of the important factors is that avoid humid and rainy days for making meringues. This is because, moisture will spoil its crispiness, as sugar absorbs moisture from the air. Even the utensils you use for mixing the ingredients must be completely dry and free of grease. Avoid plastic ones as they have the tendency to retain grease. You may go for utensils made of copper, stainless steel or glass. The eggs you use for making meringues must be fresh as this reduces the chances of breaking the yolks, while removing the whites. Fresh egg whites can also be whisked better. Make sure to bring the egg whites to room temperature, before whisking them.

Easy Way to Make Meringues
  • In order to prepare thirty pieces of meringues, you require four egg whites, a cup of caster sugar and a pinch of salt. You may also replace salt with cream of tartar. Make sure that the egg whites are of room temperature with no trace of yolks. If they are just taken out of the refrigerator, wait for at least thirty minutes, before starting whisking them.
  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Beat the egg whites with an electric beater (with the whisk attachment) on medium speed. High speed is not recommended at the initial stage, as this will negatively affect the foam formation.
  • As the egg whites turn bubbly, add a pinch of salt or caster sugar into it and continue whisking. This ingredient is optional. It is used for stiffening the foam, before sugar is added to it.
  • As soon as the egg whites form soft peaks, add sugar in small batches (teaspoonfuls), without stopping whisking. In general, a single egg white used for making meringue requires ¼ cup or 50 grams of granulated sugar (or fine sugar). After adding the last batch of sugar, whisk for another two minutes.
  • Once the sugar gets dissolved completely and the mixture forms stiff and glossy, you can stop whisking. You may rub a small amount of the mixture in between the thumb and forefinger tips to check whether the sugar is dissolved completely.
  • Now take out the whisk from the egg white-sugar mixture. If the whisk leaves stiff peaks of foam, it is perfect. Don't whisk further, as it will spoil the consistency of the foam.
  • The next step is to drop a teaspoonful of this mixture on baking trays lined with baking paper. Make sure that the meringues are at least an inch apart from one another.
  • Before placing the meringues inside the oven, reduce the temperature of the oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the meringues inside the oven and leave them for around ninety minutes. Switch off the oven, but, don't take them out. Instead, let the meringues cool inside the oven itself.
  • As you take them out, the meringues will be light and crispy with an off white shade. Place them on a wire rack for further cooling, before storing them in an air tight container. You can store them for around a week.
The above said is the easy recipe for making meringues at home. There are other variations of meringues and if you are interested in making them at home, gather such recipes too. On that note, take a look at this meringue cookie recipe. Some people may find it difficult to make meringues, when they try it for the first time. But, don't lose heart. Try again and you will be successful in making perfect meringues. Good luck.

How To Make Homemade Yogurt Cheese

The process of making yogurt cheese is simple enough for anyone to do, and though yogurt cheese makers are commercially available, it actually requires nothing more specific or sophisticated than a colander or strainer, a couple of coffee filters or paper towels, and a bowl.

Start With The Right Yogurt
This is the only step that could possibly pose a problem; if you start with the right base ingredient making yogurt cheese is practically foolproof, but if you start with the wrong kind of yogurt you'll almost certainly be disappointed with the results.

It doesn't really matter whether you choose to make your cheese with regular, low-fat, or no-fat yogurt. It also doesn't matter whether you use plain or flavored yogurt, though flavored yogurts are generally sweetened and often carry a higher calorie count.
 
What really matters is that the yogurt you start with does not contain gelatin, which binds the whey to the yogurt and basically thwarts the whole cheese making process. Choose your yogurt with this in mind; if there is gelatin in the yogurt, it will say so on the label.
 
There's nothing difficult about making yogurt cheese, and that includes assembling your equipment. If you have a strainer large enough to hold your yogurt, that's great, but if you don't, just haul out the colander you use to strain your spaghetti.

You need to line your strainer or colander with something fine enough to keep the yogurt solids contained but let the whey run through. Coffee filters are excellent, but paper towels or even a clean cotton kitchen towel work perfectly too.The only other piece of equipment you need is a bowl for the whey to drain into. Experiment until you've found one that your colander or strainer can sit on without touching bottom - this is important because you want the whey to drain away and not be reabsorbed.
