Do you love sweet bees but don't like eggs or have you been eliminating zoonotic products from your diet for some time? Nothing is lost because nothing is impossible.
In order to make vegan without aquafaba, you need an aquafaba, i.e. a canned filling with boiled chickpeas. Why she? Currant is a leguminous plant and contains a lot of vegetable protein. Eggless beige tastes as delicious as traditionally, even though they are slightly less sweet and need a little more whisking.
vegan meringue
Ingredients:
- water after 1 can of chickpeas
- a pinch of salt
- 250 g sugar in crystals, but there may also be icing sugar
- 1 teaspoon of potato flour
- 1 teaspoon of apple vinegar or lemon juice
Preparation:
All ingredients should be at room temperature. Drain the chickpeas (you can use it to make hummus or salad). Pour the aquafabs into a high container or mixing bowl. Beat at high speed until the foam is stiff. Gradually add sugar to the beaten foam, spoon by spoon, whisking all the time. At the end add vinegar or lemon juice and whisk for a while. As in the case of proteins, a thick, shiny, stiff foam should be produced. Place the resulting foam in the confectionery sleeve and press on the baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake at 130ºC for about an hour, if necessary, e.g. if the beans are large, extend the baking time by 20 minutes. After taking it out of the oven, let it rest for about an hour so that the beans are crunchy on top and slightly sticky inside.
Tasty!
