How to Make Swiss Meringues Meringues Schalen

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°F (95°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add cream of tartar and salt; beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  3. Gradually add sugar, one tablespoon at a time, beating constantly until the meringue is very stiff and glossy. Beat in vanilla extract.
  4. Spoon or pipe meringue into 2-inch mounds onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each meringue.
  5. Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the meringues are crisp and dry. Turn off the oven and leave the meringues inside with the door slightly ajar to cool completely.
  6. Once completely cool, carefully remove the meringues from the baking sheets and store in an airtight container.
