Инструкция
- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 275°F (135°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in the vinegar. Set aside.
- In a bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until frothy. Gradually sprinkle in the sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Stir in the cornstarch mixture.
- Spoon the meringue onto the baking sheet and shape into an 8-inch (20 cm) disc.
- Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until the meringue is lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely. The meringue will sink slightly as it cools.
