Why this recipe works

Pavlova with crispy shell and soft core

The sugar has to dissolve completely in the protein so that the surface remains smooth. Low oven temperature dries the bowl, while starch and vinegar preserve the marshmallow-like core. You should first prove the Pavlova at the table, otherwise the moisture of the cream pulls into the Baiser.

Kitchen know-how

Tips for Strawberry Pavlova with mascarpone

Check the Baiser correctly

The egg white mass is finished when it forms solid tips and the sugar is completely dissolved. Unsolved sugar can leave syrupy when baking.

Store dry

The unfilled Pavlova can be stored airtight at room temperature for one day. Cream and strawberries remain in the refrigerator until serving.

Variations

How to adapt this recipe

Replace some of the strawberries with raspberries, blueberries or currants and balance their acidity with little powder sugar.

Use 250 g of drained Greek yoghurt and 150 ml of whipped cream instead of mascarpone. The filling becomes fresher but slightly softer.
