RECIPE
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
- 2 tsp. corn starch
- 4 large egg whites, room temp
- Combine sugar, cream of tartar, and cornstarch in a small bowl. Mix well.
- In a mixing bowl, add egg whites and mix on high until whites are frothy.
- Add 1 tbsp. of dry mixture and wait until whites look foamy again. Finish adding dry ingredients 1 tbsp. at a time.
- Beat until glossy and a peak forms a straight up point when pulling whisk up. Check every 30 seconds and do not over beat.
- If using for pie, meringue should be placed on a HOT filling to help egg whites cook near filling. Corn starch should soak up remaining moisture so that meringue doesn't weep.
- Bake in oven at 325 degrees for 25 minutes. Meringue should bake a minimum of 20 minutes to cook egg whites.
- Serve!
