Ingredients

Steps

  1. Prepare the ingredients: two egg whites and 95 grams of powdered sugar (actually I used half the amount to bake a plate).

  3. Add a few drops of lemon juice to the egg whites, beat at low speed until thick white foam forms, then switch to high speed and continue beating. Beat the egg whites until they become dry peaks. Lift the egg beater and the egg whites can pull out straight peaks. , it takes about 13 minutes to whip the egg whites.

  5. Pipe out round meringues and upright strips of meringue on the baking sheet. Place the squeezed egg white batter into a preheated 95-degree oven and bake for 20 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 75 degrees and continue baking for 80-100 minutes. Bake until the meringue is completely firm and set when pressed with your hands, but not colored before taking it out. When roasting, you need to pay attention to the temperature of the oven to avoid browning the mushrooms.

  10. Use a knife to dig out a small circular hole in the center of the bottom of the cap. Then use a toothpick to draw the folds under the mushroom cap. Pick up a baked "stalk", dip it in a little melted white chocolate, insert it into a small hole to form a complete "mushroom".
