Room temperature egg whites are much easier to whisk up, so before you begin, pop refrigerated eggs in a bowl of warm tap water for a few mins to take the chill off them.
Commit this rule to heart, and you’ll always be able to meringuify leftover whites without a recipe and without having to take into account the size of the eggs:
Slow and steady wins the race.
Egg white contains chains of proteins that need to stretch slowly so they trap optimum air – too fast and you risk snapping some of the chains permanently, making an unstable foam that’s likely to collapse when you add the sugar.
Add your sugar a little at a time and whisk it in well.

To make perfect meringue, separate your eggs while they are cold and then allow them to come to room temperature.
Always make sure the bowl you are using to make your meringue is scrupulously clean.
Take care not to over whip your meringue.
It should have a smooth and glossy look.
Use cream of tartar to help stabilize the meringue to hold its form.
Place meringue about 4 inches under the heat and bake for about 10 minutes, just until the peaks have turned golden brown.
Whip the egg whites until they are glossy and smooth, then add the cream of tartar to help the egg whites hold their form.
Slowly add the sugar to the egg whites about a tablespoon at a time, beating after each addition until the sugar is incorporated.
Continue beating until stiff peaks form.

Het is belangrijk om de suiker langzaam toe te voegen, omdat dit helpt voorkomen dat de meringue later nat wordt.
Voeg de suiker langzaam toe en blijf kloppen tot het mengsel dik en glanzend is.
Sift een derde van de 115 g poedersuiker over het mengsel en vouw het voorzichtig in met een grote metalen lepel of rubberen spatel.
Blijf zeven en vouw tot de resterende poedersuiker erin zit.
Maak ongeveer 1 tot 2 weken van tevoren: je kunt de meringues bakken, laten afkoelen, in een luchtdichte doos bewaren en bij kamertemperatuur 2 weken bewaren of invriezen en 1 maand in de vriezer bewaren.
