   2      lg            Egg whites -- room temperature
   1      pn            Salt
     2/3  c             Sugar -- sifted

Preheat oven to 250°F.

Cover 2 baking sheets with parchment or foil.

Beat egg whites with salt until soft peaks form. Add sugar very

Bake until dry, but not brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool 2 to 3 minutes
before removing from baking sheets.
