Step-by-Step Instructions for Pavlova
- Preheat the oven to 275°F (135°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, marking a 9-inch circle.
- In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites on low until soft peaks form, then gradually add sugar while increasing speed until stiff peaks form and sugar dissolves.
- Gently fold in cornstarch and vinegar without deflating the meringue.
- Shape the meringue on the marked baking sheet, creating a tall nest with a depression in the center.
- Bake in the oven for 80-90 minutes until firm and golden, then turn off the oven and cool inside for at least 4 hours.
- Whip cream to medium peaks and spread over the cooled meringue, topping with fresh fruits.
