      Title: Strawberry Pavlova w/Mint
 Categories: Desserts, Fruits, Dairy, Herbs, Citrus
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
      6    Egg whites
        pn Salt
        pn Cream of tartar
  1 1/2 c  Sugar
      1 ts Lemon juice
    1/2 ts Vanilla
  2 1/2 ts Cornstarch
      4 c  Strawberries
      2 tb Sugar
     10    Mint leaves
  1 1/2 c  Whipping cream
    1/2 c  Creme fraiche
 
  Allow egg whites to stand at room temperature for 30
  minutes. Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with parchment
  paper or foil. Draw a 9" circle on the paper or foil.
  Invert paper or foil so the circle is on the reverse side.
  
  Set oven @ 250ºF/120ºC.
  
  For meringue, in a large mixing bowl beat egg whites,
  salt, and cream of tartar with an electric mixer on medium
  speed until soft peaks form (tips curl). Add the 1 1/2
  cups sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating on high speed
  until stiff peaks form (tips stand straight). Beat in
  lemon juice and vanilla. Sift cornstarch over egg white
  mixture; using a rubber spatula, gently fold cornstarch
  into egg white mixture.
  
  Spread meringue over circle on paper or foil, building up
  edges slightly to form a shell. Bake for 1 1/2 hours (do
  not open door). Turn off oven; let meringue dry in oven
  with door closed for 1 hour.
  
  For filling, 20 minutes before serving, clean, hull, and
  slice the strawberries. Place strawberries in a large
  bowl. Toss berries with the 2 tablespoons sugar. Tear mint
  leaves; gently stir mint into strawberry mixture. Let
  stand for 20 minutes.
  
  Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl beat the whipping cream
  and creme fraiche with an electric mixer on medium speed
  (or beat with a whisk or rotary beater) until soft peaks
  form (tips curl).
  
  Place meringue shell on a large platter. Spread the cream
  mixture into the meringue shell. Spoon the strawberry
  mixture over the cream mixture. Serve immediately.
