Perfect for beginners and seasoned bakers alike, this recipe will guide you through the simple steps to make perfect meringues every time.
- Ensure that your mixing bowl and beaters are completely clean and free of any grease or oil to achieve maximum volume when beating the egg whites.
- Use room temperature egg whites for better volume and stability.
- Add the sugar gradually, allowing it to dissolve completely before adding more, to avoid gritty meringues.
- For extra stability, you can add a teaspoon of cornstarch when adding the sugar.
- If you prefer a chewier center, bake the meringues at a higher temperature for a shorter period. For crisp meringues, bake at a lower temperature and for a longer time.
- Store your meringues in an airtight container to keep them crisp.
