Meringue is a sweet dessert, often associated with French, Swiss, and Italian cuisine and while it may seem terrifying to cook, a meringue is nothing more than a mixture of beaten egg whites and sugar. Meringue is a must-have decoration for many desserts – everything from a popular lemon meringue pie to a rusberry soup we offer you to cook today. Rusberry-this fruity berry with rich flavor keeps the meringue from being too sweet.
