TIPS

Homemade meringues : 2 egg whites + 200 g of fine sugar. Preheat the oven to 110 degrees C. Beat the egg whites to a medium-stiff foam, then gradually add sugar a spoonful at a time, beating constantly until the foam is very stiff and shiny. Place 5 portions of meringues on a baking tray lined with baking paper, leaving space between them. Place in the oven on a lower shelf and bake for 1 hour , or until the meringues come away easily from the paper. Remove from oven and cool completely before using.
