OMFG -- this looks soooo simple and sooooooo good. From Slashfood:

Food Porn: Roasted Peaches with Meringue Topping Rowena, of the blog Rubber Slippers in Italy, put together a simple dessert of roasted yellow peaches with Italian meringue topping that is a great way to end a summer meal. The dessert takes advantage of the flavorful peaches that are in season right now, roasting them to enhance their sweetness even further. Italian meringue is made when a sugar syrup is boiled and streamed into beaten egg whites. The heat of the syrup cooks the meringue and allows it to hold its shape much better than an uncooked meringue will, so it makes a prettier and more stable dessert. The dessert takes little time to prepare and is as beautiful to look at as it is delicious - a dish sure to impress guests, as well as satisfying your sweet tooth with a light treat.

Topped with a few crumbled roasted pistachio nuts. I'm going shopping for peaches tomorrow (we get some wonderful Pence Peaches this time of the year -- they are worth checking out if you are in the Washington/Oregon area.) Posted by DaveH at September 15, 2006 10:20 PM
