Equipment

  • 1 Saucepan
  • 1 Cooking Thermometer

Ingredients
  

  • 300 g Cawston Press Beetroot Juice
  • 20 g Powdered Gelatin
  • 500 g White Granulated Sugar
  • 240 g Water
  • 60 g Egg Whites
  • 1 g Salt
  • 1 Lime

Method
 

  • Place the beetroot juice in a saucepan and reduce it by half on medium-low heat.
  • While the beetroot juice is reducing, cook the sugar and water in a saucepan on a medium heat until the mixture reaches 125°c.
  • Once the juice is reduced leave it to one side, once cool add the gelatin powder by whisking it into the juice
  • When at 125°c remove the sugar mix from the heat to cool, when it has stopped bubbling, add the beetroot mix by whisking them well to combine.
  • Once combined set aside and allow to cool to room /temperature.
  • Using either a stand mixer with a whisk attachment or a handheld mixer, start whisking the egg whites slowly while gradually adding the salt.
  • When the salt is incorporated, start to add the beetroot/sugar mixture in a slow steady stream down the side of the bowl (as if you were making an Italian meringue).
  • Once combined, turn the mixer up to full speed and whisk until the outside of the bowl is no longer hot to the touch.
  • Transfer the mix to a piping bag, dust baking paper with icing sugar and pipe the egg white mix as if you were piping meringue kisses.
  • Dust with a generous amount of icing sugar and leave to dry overnight on the kitchen worktop.
