Servings: persons

4 egg whites, room temperature
1/2-3/4 cups castor sugar
1 teaspoon vinegar, optional (pear infused if you have it)
2 teaspoons corn starch, optional
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon minced lavender flowers, fresh or crumpled and dried, or just use 1 tbl. of lavender sugar
4 fresh pears, pared and thinly sliced
4 tablespoons fresh grated ginger
4 sugared fresh cranberries, halved, or dried (or cherries)
lavender leaves, optional
splash of Poire Williams, Domaine de Canton, or St. Germain
1 cup whipping cream
2-3 tablespoons sugar, to taste

1
Preferably in a copper bowl beat the egg whites with a mixer. Gradually add the castor sugar, one tablespoon at a time. When the peaks are getting stiff, pour in the optional vinegar; fold in the optional cornstarch if you want. Continue beating until peaks stiffen. Sprinkle in the ginger and lavender.
2
On a baking sheet line with parchment paper create 4 nests out of the stiff meringue. Bake in a 250 degree oven until the nests become lightly brown on top, about 40 minutes. Turn off the oven and let them sit there for several hours, even overnight until completely cooled.
3
After the meringue shells are ready, peel them from the parchment and plate them.
4
Whip the cream with splash of Poire Williams, Domaine de Canton, or St. Germain and dash of sugar to taste.
5
Layer the cream on top of each meringue nest. Next arrange the thin pear slices on top. At the center plant a clump of fresh ginger. Center a halved sugared cranberry on the ginger. Arrange the lavender leaves in a concentric pattern around the cranberry if you like. I like to create a flower with the fruits.
6
Let the flavors co-mingle for at least one hour, if not longer. Then serve and enjoy right away. Leftovers for breakfast are not very appealing with this dish, so please finish each portion while they are prime.
