Preparation for the meringue

Using a pastry bag or a spoon, fill meringue buttered ramekins et cuire au four micro-ondes, 30 secondes ou 1 minute suivant la grosseur.
Dès que la meringue commence à se fendre, elle est cuite. Démoulez les iles flottantes sur un linge propre et gardez-les au frigo. -
