- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 12 large egg whites
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Sift together the flour, 3/4 cup sugar, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
- Beat the egg whites in a large mixing bowl until frothy. Add cream of tartar and continue to beat until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add the remaining sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.

Notes
Ensure mixing bowls and beaters are clean and free of grease to whip egg whites effectively. Fold in flour gently to maintain the airy texture.
