Directions

1. Step

In a saucepan, combine the pitted cherries and water. Bring to a boil, then blend with an electric mixer until smooth. Strain the mixture through a sieve to remove any solids.

2. Step

Add the sugar and agar-agar to the strained cherry puree, mix well, and bring to a boil again. Let it simmer for a few minutes while stirring.

3. Step

In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with 70 g of sugar using an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes until soft peaks form.

4. Step

Slowly pour the hot cherry mixture into the beaten egg whites while continuously mixing for about 5 minutes until the mixture becomes fluffy.

5. Step

Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 10-12 hours to set. Once firm, transfer it into a piping bag with a star-shaped nozzle.
