MERINGUE TOPPING
to keep the meringue from weeping, never add more than 2 tbls of sugar for each egg white, also the oven temperature for browning it should not be above 325*...the addition of cream of tartar also gives the whites stability..this makes enough meringue for 1--9" pie..

Steps:
- preheat the oven to 325* --
- in a large mixer bowl -- beat the egg whites, salt and cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
- gradually add the sugar a tablespoon at a time and continue beating until soft peaks form --
- just before beating is completed sprinkle in the cornstarch --
- the peaks should not topple over when the beater is raised -- but the meringue should not appear dry.
- spread the meringue on lukewarm filling in the pie shell(this helps keep it from shrinking away from the filling as it cools.).
- clear over the edge of the crust.
- swoop the meringue into attractive peaks.
- bake for 15-18 minutes or until the peaks are golden brown.
- cool the pie gradually.there should be no warmth at all left in the meringue, then refrigerate.
