niamh4626 · 2010-09-28 18:43:08

Hey all, I made some meringues this evening (disaster, my beater gave in half way through now my arm is sore and they didnt even go that stiff:eek:) Anyway, I'm just wondering what people use the egg yolks for when they make meringues???? I'm hitting a brick wall trying to think of something....... Any tips greatly…

I usually make some pastry with the yolks and freeze it, great for the coming mince pie season.

lemon curd, you can use it to mix with cream to put on meringue with raspberries - yum.
