Baked Alaska Day celebrates a dessert made of cake, ice cream and baked meringue.
Its origin is disputed to be either France, the United States or China.
What is known is that the name was coined in 1876 by Chef Charles Ranhofer of Delmonico's restaurant in New York City, to honor the acquisition of the Alaska Territory from Russia by the United States on October 18, 1867, and its official designation as a US District on May 17, 1884.
Baked Alaska is simple to make. A cake is topped with ice cream and enshrouded within a meringue cap which is bake for a minute or so to brown and harden the meringue. The ice cream, insulated by the meringue doesn’t melt.
Often fruits, honey, liquor or nuts are added.
Deliciously rich, Baked Alaska Day celebrates the dessert and the state.
