how long will egg whites keep in the fridge in a bowl for

[Heathcliffscathy]

cracked them open yesterday, want them for thursday night....should i freeze them or will they be fine or are they already gone???/

freeze them
in a container with some of space at the top as they expand slighty

what are you making?

pavlova i think...unless you've got a more genius idea (pudding for beloved ex boss coming round for dinner).

i have nigella on my side. :)

if i stuff it up i'll do something else.

Yes, that's the ticket

Last time I stuffed up a pavlola I broke up the meringue and put it in the custard layer of a trifle.

We were having a Pommie dinner with prawn cocktail, toad in the hole with sprouts and gravy and trifle

freeze them but remember thow many there are, otherwise your pavlova will be in trouble.

DH is after your guts Sophable.

I saw this thread and primed DS (nearly 5) to go to DH and say "I want you to help me make a Pavlola (sic) for Mummy.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh I can't wait.

What do you do with the yolks though ??

pmsl LadySherlock. So I'm not the only one who uses devious methods to get dds to get dh to do things

I thought it didn't look quite right

You make icecream with the yolks

I have a stunning recipe for raspberry ice cream but you need an icecream maker

Oh drool SW. Prawn Cocktail, Toad in the hole. Trifle. Raspberry ice cream.

Why on earth are you not in Sydney inviting me to share this feast fgs?

Sorry for hijack soph. Good luck with your pavlova. Had one tonight btw.

well next time you come West I'll lay it on for you, arf

You used prawns with flavour? Good god woman what were you thinking of? Next time just put some papier mache in thousand island dressing if you can't find authentic UK prawns.

You're Perth if I remember? Next time will phone you from the airport so you can get the sprouts and papier mache on in good time.

HA! you're on
