Pavlova- help! Can I use malt vinegar

[hippohead]

Does anyone know if I can use malt vinegar in pavlova rather than white wine vinegar?

I have only got the good old brown malt stuff and car is being MOT'd so I can't get to the shop.

Also I am not sure how to adjust the recipe for a fan assisted oven. It says 140 degrees for one and half hours. I was thinking of 120 degrees for 1hour 15 minutes?!?!

Eh? You sure? Vinegar? Never used it before! Maybe this is a magic ingredient.... Hmmmm. And we are big on pavlova in this house.

Err. can't remember my cooking times off hand, but think it is something like 140 for one hour then turn off the oven and leave in til cold.

yes you can.

I would just make it without the vinegar.

Thanks for the replies. I've used a Nigella recipe which includes 2 teaspoons of white wine vinegar.

The pavlova is in the oven now with malt vinegar instead.

The timing is 1 and 3/4 hours at 150- seems a bit long so will probably take it out a bit sooner.

Fingers crossed!
