This is one of my favorite desserts but I have such a time with it. It comes out tasting a bit like marshmellows. What am I doing wrong? I have not tried this recipe.


A perfect pavlova has a meringue type crust on the outside and is like a thick marshmallow on the inside. If you achieve this you have the perfect pavlova. Don't be disappointed if when you turn it on to a plate that you have cracks appear as they are covered by the whipped cream. This recipe includes boiling water which seems at odds with egg whites but it is what makes it so light.
