Critical Success Points

  • Dough rest in the fridge (1 h) to avoid shrinking
  • Cook the lemon curd to 82°C without coagulating the eggs
  • Reach exactly 121°C for the meringue syrup
  • Pour the hot syrup onto the whites while whisking

Safety Warnings

  • The 121°C syrup can cause severe burns – handle with care and use a thermometer.
  • Wear kitchen gloves when using the grill or torch.
  • Never leave the oven unattended during caramelisation.
