Etymology
The term 'meringue' is thought to have originated in the 17th century, with its roots in the French language. Some historians attribute the term to the village of Meiringen in Switzerland, where a similar dessert was believed to have been created. The technique of whipping egg whites to create a light, airy consistency was popularized in French cuisine, and over time, meringue became widely used as a decorative topping for various desserts including pies and cakes. The word 'meringued' thus evolved as a descriptor for dishes that utilize this sweet foam, highlighting the elegance and delicate nature of the meringue itself.
