Pavlova - New Zealand

Created in honor of famous Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, this dessert's country of origin is much disputed—historians can't decide if it was New Zealand or Australia. However, the one thing they can agree on is that it's divine. While Americans celebrate Christmas during the wintertime, countries in the southern hemisphere are in the middle of summer. It's no wonder, then, that this soft and airy treat made of baked meringue, whipped cream and fresh fruit is typical holiday fare in New Zealand the Land Down Under. Get the recipe here.
