  4. For the cream, chop the rhubarb into 1 cm long pieces. Cook with the sugar over medium heat until soft and allow to cool.
  5. Whisk QimiQ Clasic smooth. Add the rhubarb, 40 g sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon and mix well.
  6. Spread onto the cold pastry base. Chill for at least 4 hours (preferably over night).
  7. Whisk the egg whites and sugar until stiff. Spread over the cold cream and brown with a gas torch. Release the baking frame and portion.
