Snowy Eggs with Guava Gelato (Take a deep breath, believe it: you've never taken a sigh like this one!)

Start by making the meringue balls

Beat the egg white with a pinch of salt

When it becomes firm, slowly add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, beating constantly

When you lift the mixer and the mixture still holds its shape, stop

Don't overbeat

Now add the gelato and mix well

Heat the milk in a saucepan

As it's cooking, slowly pour the meringue mixture into the milk, spoon by spoon

Let it cook on low heat for 5 minutes, until the meringues are very firm

Remove with a slotted spoon and place on three layers of paper towels

Reserve the milk

Now beat the eggs and yolk

Add 1/4 cup of cornstarch and a pinch of salt

Add the milk (which should have cooled slightly by now)

If necessary, add more milk to complete 2 cups, then add it

Place in a water bath, stirring constantly until thickened slightly

Remove from heat and add grated orange peel

Place in a bowl and top with the meringues

Refrigerate
