To prepare filling, beat 1 teaspoon vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 3 egg whites with a mixer at high speed until foamy using clean, dry beaters. Combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer registers 250u00b0.

Sprinkle 3 tablespoons Praline Powder over filling. Reroll cake; place, seam side down, on a platter. Snip off an 1/8-inch opening in 1 bottom corner of bag; pipe filling over the top of roulade. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon Praline Powder.
