Baked Alaska is a dessert consisting of ice cream and cake topped with browned meringue.

Etymology

The most common claim about the name "baked Alaska" is that it was coined at Antoine's, a restaurant in New Orleans, Louisiana, US, by its chef de cuisine Antoine Alciatore in 1867 to honor the acquisition by the United States of Alaska from the Russian Empire on March 10 that year.[1] However, no contemporary account exists to support this claim, and the name was not used until some years after the Alaska Purchase. Delmonico's chef Charles Ranhofer called the dish an "Alaska, Florida" in 1894, apparently referring to the contrast between its cold and hot elements.[2] The dish is also known as an omelette à la norvégienne or "Norwegian omelette", which similarly refers to the cold climate of Norway.[3]

The dish is made of ice cream placed in a pie dish lined with slices of sponge cake or Christmas pudding, and topped with meringue. The entire dessert is then placed in an extremely hot oven for a brief time, long enough to firm and caramelize the meringue.[1]

Variations

In 1969, the recently invented microwave oven enabled Hungarian gastrophysicist Nicholas Kurti to produce a reverse baked Alaska (also called a "Frozen Florida")—a frozen shell of meringue filled with hot liquor.[4]

A variation called bombe Alaska calls for some dark rum to be splashed over the baked Alaska. The whole dessert is flambéed while being served.[5]

Flame on the iceberg is a popular dessert in Hong Kong that is similar to baked Alaska. The dessert is an ice-cream ball in the middle of a sponge cake, with cream on the top. Whisky and syrup are poured over the top and the ball set alight before serving.[6]{{unreliable source?|date=August 2016}} Decades ago, the delicacy was served only in high-end hotels, but today it is commonly served in many Western restaurants and even in some cha chaan teng.
