Baked Alaska is a show-stopping, crowd-pleaser dessert that has seen a renaissance recently, which can largely be attributed to one pastry chef in New York City—Caroline Schiff. Caroline is the executive pastry chef at iconic Brooklyn restaurant Gage & Tollner, where her popular version of Baked Alaska has been on the menu since the restaurant reopened in 2021. She’s known for her creative spins on classic treats and for the dramatic swoops in her meringue, and her hair.Caroline chats with host Jessie Sheehan about her culinary journey, her debut baking book, “The Sweet Side of Sourdough,” and the tasty treats she makes with her sourdough discard. Plus, the duo walk through Caroline’s Baked Alaska recipe, which she has adapted for home cooks. The pastry chef shares all of her best tips and tricks for working with ice cream and whipping and torching meringue.
