Chef Tips

- Before whipping the egg whites, make sure the bowl is completely dry and free of any grease. - Add the sugar gradually to ensure the egg whites beat perfectly. - Use ripe, but not overripe, strawberries to obtain a flavor balance.

Variations

- Include lemon zest in the pavlova batter to give it a citrus touch. - Use demerara or cane sugar instead of refined sugar for a more complex flavor. - Add a layer of whipped cream with vanilla before placing the strawberries.

Substitutions

- If you don't have powdered sugar, use refined sugar and reduce the amount to 1 tablespoon. - For those who don't have mint, use fresh basil leaves as a decoration alternative. - If you prefer, use heavy cream with whey to replace fresh heavy cream.

How to Store

The pavlova should be served soon after preparation, as it does not maintain its crunchy texture well for long. Storing in the refrigerator can ruin the crispy structure.

Can You Freeze It?

It is not recommended to freeze the pavlova. If you wish to preserve, prepare the whipped cream and strawberries separately and freeze them to use in future desserts.

What to Serve With

Serve the pavlova accompanied by a black or green tea to complement the sweet and fresh flavor of the dessert.
