merinque : place metal bowl and beaters in refrigerator to get cold before using

Have egg whites at room temperature. If you forgot to take them out early enough place whole eggs
in warm water

separate egg whites from yolks, in separate bowls or cups. this way if you have a speck of yellow
you only need to discard that egg not all you are using n your recipe. a speck of yolk will cause your merinque failure

a tad of cream of Tartar
Gradually add sugar after you have beat the egg whites a few strokes on medium . continue beating until soft peaks form.
