How to prepare: English soup in a meringue crust


Start preparing the hazelnut cream by toasting them in a non-stick pan. Let them cool and rub them between your hands in order to easily remove all the brown skin. Alternatively, you can use pre-roasted and peeled hazelnuts, but the flavor will be less intense. Transfer the hazelnuts to a blender and blend until you get a pasty consistency thanks to the oil they release. Bring the mixture into a bowl, add the cocoa and mix very well. Then add the oil and the chocolate, previously melted in the microwave or in a saucepan in a bain-marie, allowed to cool slightly. Continue to mix well with the help of a spatula until you get a smooth and homogeneous cream, transfer it to a jar and let it rest in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.


Compose the single-portion trifle by soaking two ladyfingers in Alchermes and placing them at the base of each glass. Add a layer of custard, two more soaked ladyfingers and a final layer of hazelnut cream. Put the single portions in the refrigerator and let them rest for a couple of hours. To make the meringue, start beating the egg whites with a few drops of lemon using the electric whisk. After a couple of minutes, add the sugar, a little at a time, and continue to whisk until you get a shiny and firm meringue that you will transfer to a piping bag and place in the refrigerator.

When serving the trifle, make a layer of meringue as a garnish and flame it with the help of a torch.
