Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine egg whites, kosher salt, and cornstarch. Beat on medium speed until foamy.
- Gradually add granulated sugar, continuing to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form (5-7 minutes).
- Gently fold in vinegar and vanilla extract using a spatula.
- Spoon dollops of meringue onto the baking sheets, creating small mounds with cavities in the centers.
- Bake for about 2 hours until crisp and dry to the touch. Cool in the oven.
- Prepare the lemon curd by simmering lemon juice in a saucepan until reduced by half.
- In a bowl, beat butter and sugar until fluffy, then add egg yolks and whole egg with a pinch of salt.
- Mix in the cooled lemon juice and ginger, then pour into a double boiler to thicken.
- Stir continuously for 10-12 minutes until thickened. Strain and cool in the fridge.
- Once meringues are cooled, fill cavities with lemon curd and top with berries and mint.
- Dust lightly with powdered sugar before serving.
