Kitchen pro tip: Wipe the bowl and whisk of your stand mixer out with lemon juice or white vinegar just before you add your egg whites. This erases any scant trace of leftover fat from another bake and helps ensure your meringue will whip to its full potential. Additionally, be sure to add cream of tartar to your meringue; the acidity of the cream of tartar works to strengthen the proteins in the egg whites, helping them to stay strong as you whip them.
