Ingredients
- 4 fresh egg-whites
- salt
- 2 teaspoonfuls water
- 3 cups sugar
- butter
Instructions
- Add a tiny pinch of salt, two teaspoonfuls water, and three cups fine sugar to four fresh unbeaten egg-whites. Beat hard for at least half an hour until the mixture is smooth and stiff. Drop from the point of a spoon onto buttered paper. Harden in a cool oven—one cool enough not to color the meringues.
