Ingredients

Italian Meringue:

Method

In saucepan, bring sugar, water and lime juice to boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved; let cool.

In food processor, puree raspberries. Press through fine sieve into large bowl to remove seeds; stir in lime mixture. Set aside.

Italian meringue: In small heavy saucepan, bring sugar and water to boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Boil for about 5 minutes or until firm-ball stage when about 1 tsp (5 mL) syrup dropped into very cold water forms firm but pliable ball.

Meanwhile, in bowl, beat egg whites with lime rind at medium speed until stiff but not dry peaks form and syrup for Italian Meringue is at firm-ball stage. Increase to high speed; beat in syrup in thin steady stream. Beat for about 3 minutes or until cooled to room temperature and side of bowl is cool to the touch.

Using whisk, gently fold about one-third of the Italian meringue into raspberry mixture. Fold in remaining meringue.

Pour into shallow metal cake pan; freeze until semifirm, about 4 hours. Scrape into food processor; puree. Pack into airtight container and freeze for 4 hours. (Or freeze in
ice-cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions.) (Make-ahead: Freeze for up to 2 days.)
