Pavlova with Tangerine and Black Truffles
Description
The dessert is constructed by preparing a custard-like "creme pasteur" from egg yolks, sugar, starches, milk, and flavorings including vanilla and orange zest, set with gelatin and combined with whipped cream and yogurt. Separately, a Pavlova cream is made from whipped cream, mascarpone, patisserie cream, and sugar, which is folded into the custard mixture and whipped to a creamy consistency. The meringue is prepared with egg whites, sugar, and apple vinegar, whipped to stiff peaks and baked at a low temperature to form a crisp shell with a soft inside. The final assembly involves layering or piping the creamy filling over or within the meringue. While the recipe title mentions black truffles, the method does not specify how they are incorporated, suggesting they may be a garnish or folded into the cream.
