Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) and clean your mixing bowl with vinegar-soaked paper towels.
- In a sanitized mixing bowl, whisk egg whites and salt on medium speed until soft peaks form (about 2-3 minutes).
- Gradually add sugar, about ¼ cup at a time, whisking until thick and glossy.
- Whip on high speed for an additional 3 minutes until shiny and stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold in the cornflour, vanilla, and vinegar mixture into the meringue.
- Dollop meringue onto parchment-lined tray, shaping into a circle with a slight well in the center.
- Bake at 250°F (120°C) for 1 to 1.25 hours until lightly browned and dry to the touch.
- Turn off oven and let pavlova cool inside for about 3 hours.
- Whip cream until soft peaks form and spread into the center of the pavlova, topping with fresh berries.

Notes
Ensure no egg yolks mix with egg whites for optimal whipping. Add sugar slowly for best results. Serve with toppings just before serving for freshness.
