Cultured Palate: International Dishes from Switzerland
Meringues with La Gruyère Double Cream
One of the most decadent desserts on Earth is distinctly Swiss in origin and is nearly impossible to find anywhere outside of the country.
Early on in their cheese manufacturing history, producers of Gruyère whipped their cheese with heavy cream to form a deliciously sweet, spreadable confection that retains all the earthiness of the cheese mixed with silky whipped cream. This amazing invention, while delicious on its own, was soon being enjoyed as an accompaniment to meringues. The combination of crunchy, light meringue with earthy, sweet La Gruyère Double Cream is out of this world good.
More La Gruyère double cream! This time, whipped with vanilla beans and tucked under the meringue. pic.twitter.com/Clj9bxB3N2
