Contrary to what one might think, the baked Alaska is not an omelette and it's 100% French! Created in the nineteenth century, the baked Alaska is, first, a history of chemistry! Drawing on the experiences of a physicist who established the non-conductivity of the beaten egg white, a parisian pastry realized the impossible by creating an iced cake flambé that does not melt. A soft cake, a creamy heart of vanilla ice cream and a golden italian meringue... a simple, light and gorgeous dessert at once!
