This meringue is wonderful. It doesn't get weepy, and has such a good vanilla flavor.

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 eggs whites
  • 0.25 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 6 tablespoons white sugar

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small saucepan, combine water, 2 tablespoons sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over low heat until clear, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.

    In a large glass or metal bowl, beat egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt until mixture is foamy. Mix in vanilla, then gradually add the 6 tablespoons sugar, beating constantly until meringue forms soft peaks. Gradually pour in cornstarch mixture, beating until stiff.
