Floating Islands
My Uncle Ren has always loved this dessert, so when I was making it for the photography shoot for this book, I called him up and asked him over. It was during lockdown (when we could meet outside), so he didn’t come near us, but just enjoyed it quietly in the garden, packed the rest into a container and left for his home, very happy and full! I like to serve this when I want a bit of a showstopper; the meringue quenelles, the caramel and the custard make it a great dessert to impress.
