This is a lovely little Christmassy dish of Pears poached in mulled wine, with vanilla custard and toasted mulled-wine marshmallow, finished with Pain D'Epices and Gold Dust.

Toasted Mulled Wine Marshmallow
  • 150ml Water
  • 5g MSK Egg White Powder
  • 200g Sugar
  • 3 leaves Bronze Leaf Gelatine (soaked)
  • 1/4tsp MSK Mulled Wine Flavour Drops

Place the water and egg white powder on the mixer and whisk together.

Mix the sugar with a little water in a pan and heat to 118C, then pour over the egg mixture, mixing continuously.

Add the softened gelatine to the hot mixture, then add the mulled wine flavour and continue to whisk until cool.  Place the mixture into a piping bag and pipe onto the plated dish.

Use a blowtorch to glaze and toast the marshmallow.
