Just like your mum makes it: lemon meringue pudding.

Don't confine sugar to desserts. Set it free on main courses like marinated chicken with mango relish.

Paul shows us a lovely Italian meringue, and a honeycomb to die for. In between he exposes the secrets of sugar.

Method

Line the baking tray with baking parchment.
Put the sugar, water, golden syrup, butter and glucose into a pan and bring to the boil. When boiling, add the baking powder and shake rigorously. The mixture will puff up.
Immediately pour the mixture into the lined baking tray and allow to cool.
To serve, break the honeycomb into chunks and dip in melted chocolate.
