Yes bc I’ve been baking really good since I started looking for recipes on his channel

Pastry chef tip: whenever making meringue for pavlova, whip it to soft peaks instead of stiff peaks. It’s a bit counterintuitive, but it works because if you whip it to soft peaks, the air bubbles will still have space to “grow” within the meringue structure in the oven without collapsing it. Whipping to stiff peaks will make the air bubbles “pop” with the oven heat and the result will be a less airy, more dense meringue

It's really good and can be made very festive.

I first had pavlova in New Zealand and fell in love with it. Mary Berry had a recipe where she used the yolks to make lemon curd to go on top of the pavlova, too. I don't think it's traditional, but it is a very yummy addition.

I made this for my family using your instructions and they loved it!!! Thank you

Yay! NZ traditional Christmas dessert! ❤

Ooooooo! That looks *so* pretty! This is the *perfect* spring/summer desert! And I love, love, *love* the added lemon curd! Yum!!!

You are very easy to watch!, love your recipes and a dash of humour!

A symphony for the senses 😍❣️😍

It’s definitely an invention from Aotearoa New Zealand, adopted by Australians as their own (it happens quite often with successful Kiwi things… maybe because Australia wanted NZ to become a state there upon Federation, and NZ roundly rejected that proposal!). Pavlova with strawberries and Kiwifruit as toppings is the classic form

@vanweeldenmilan

@@earthstar2493 The recipe I’m using calls for 6 eggwhites, 1 3/4 cups of superfine sugar, 2 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch, 2 teaspoons of white vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon of rosewater Start with eggwhites and sugar only - one scoop of sugar at a time, same method as John’s above - and when you have stiff peaks, gently fold in the rest until thoroughly mixed in. I always add some vanilla too at this stage. Preheat at 350, but when you place the meringue in the oven, lower it to 300 F and bake for one hour. Same cooling process as John. Macerate your strawberries in the juice of 3 passionfruit and 2 teaspoons of sugar before you whip the cream. When building up, scoop the strawberries on the whipped cream; juice and all. This recipe has been a hit for many years in my household ❤

I was just looking for this recipe yesterday for my daughter’s Bluey birthday party in September. THANKSSSS

Beautiful cake. Great for Mother’s Day 🌺

As a New Zealander I appreciate your shoutout to the Pav ❤. I’m just glad you didn’t solely say it’s aussie haha 😆 that was very well done 😂

I like how you whisper certain things that you are saying. Very cute!!

Australian here. As soon as I saw you were doing pavlova, I wondered if you were going to mention the controversy! I understand that it's originally Aotearoa's but adopted by Australia. A Kiwi chef told me that the desired texture is different between the two. I think the Kiwi one should be more fluffy inside, and the Aussie one more chewy. Happy to be corrected though!

@joshdrayton1230

16 күн бұрын

There's really no difference between Aussie and Kiwi pavlovas. The chewy versus marshmallowy thing is really a personal choice; some like it denser and chewier, but a proper pavlova should be light and marshmallow-like. The evidence that the pav originated in NZ is pretty shaky. There are several early published NZ recipes for a meringue-like dessert topped with fruit but a) most are clearly for a harder meringue shell or a sandwich of two meringues and b) most were not called "Pavlova". The earliest recipe to be called "Pavlova" AND be clearly designed to be light and marshmallow-like comes from Western Australian chef Bert Sachse at Perth's Esplanade Hotel in 1935. It's telling that the origins for the WA version are precise and verifiable, whereas the NZ claims are somewhat murky.

Looking delicious John.

Beautiful dessert!!

The first frosting I make for a cake, home economics extra credit was a white, egg white based recipe. I followed the cook book directions. no pictures, and applied the marshmallowy textured frosting. I dipped, I swooped, and I swirled the concoction to my satisfaction. It was quite the looker, tall. and proud on the cake plate. Imagine my bewilderment when returning to the cake several hours later only to find just the cake layers remained. The cooked frosting had dissolved into nothing! That's why I appreciate the explanation of each step taken in your videos. The desired result, how to achieve it, and failure to correctly follow directions is explained.

This looks amazing and I can't wait to make it!

I salivate every time I see this recipe!

Hey, John! Could you possibly make a video talking about substitutes for butter in baking? Like for example, which substitutes are more suitable for what kind of recipes and maybe point out the ones in which you absolutely CAN'T replace butter for anything else? Butter is very expensive where I live and there's many recipes that call for a lot of it, specially the ones with chocolate (my favorites 😢) and most frostings. Love your videos! Will definitely be trying this one ❤

I have never made one (intimidating) but watching you step by step it feels as if I could maybe make one myself!!! The mile high piling of lovely fresh fruits on top sold me, wow is all I can possibly say lol I have to say you make things seem so easy and the step by step instructions put it all into easy perspective, it makes the average cook feel as if anything is possible in the kitchen. Many thanks for sharing these videos with us, I thoroughly enjoy each and every one of them. Waiting with baited breath for the next one….well maybe a bit,of an exaggeration lol but excited none the less lol Have a wonderful weekend John Brian, Laughlan and George 🩷 🩷 Tina 🩷

Loved the video! I am curious about something though, do you think it would be possible to make a sugar-free meringue? Using, say, erythritol or stevia ? I was recently diagnosed with diabetes and I fear regular meringue are a thing lf the past for me

I've never heard of Pavlova before Bluey. I don't know if I want to attempt this without a mixer on hand lol
