Day 14 of 30: Giant (short-lived) meringue

[nanila]

Last week I decided to use up a bunch of cooking apples to make apple smush, and then top it with the leftover egg whites from when the bloke had made custard. I was alarmed by the size of the meringue when it came out of the oven, but alas, I clearly hadn't whisked sufficiently because within a few minutes this noble edifice had ignominiously collapsed.

I bet it still tasted delicious. It certainly looks amazing!

[nanila]

Thankfully yes, it was a tasty!nom. :)

At least you captured the glory and I'm sure it was delicious.

[nanila]

Such short-lived glory! I'm glad I got the camera ready before I took it out of the oven.

That is an impressive monument, and very glad you got a picture of it before it collapsed upon itself.

[nanila]

Thanks! Yes, me too. At least it still tasted good.

[silveradept]

That's ultimately the thing that's important.

It's so pretty though!! While it lasted, anyway.

[nanila]

Yes! If only I had left the mixer going a little longer...

[lenores_raven]

It's glorious.

[nanila]

Thanks! It tasted good, at least, after it collapsed.

[azurelunatic]

Still impressive (and delicious)!

[nanila]

Thank you! Yes, I'm glad it was tasty, otherwise I would have been very sad about the collapse.

[slemslempike]

Ohhh I want one.

[nanila]

I want to make another one! I discovered another bunch of cooking apples on our trees outside so: this weekend. :D
