STEP 1: MAKE THE MERINGUE MIXTURE

Separate the egg whites into a large bowl. Be very careful not to get any egg yolk in with the egg white, or it will not whisk properly.

Use an electric whisk to whisk the eggs until they are completely white and fluffy. You will know they are ready when you can turn the bowl upside down and they doesn't slide out.

The meringue mixture should be white, smooth and glossy.
