For best results, use fresh egg whites that are at room temperature. This will help them whip up to a greater volume. Ensure your bowl and beaters are completely clean and free of any grease, as this can prevent the egg whites from whipping properly. Superfine sugar is crucial for a smooth meringue. If you don't have it, you can pulse regular granulated sugar in a food processor until it's finely ground. Do not open the oven door during baking, as this can cause the meringues to collapse. Store the cooled meringues in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their crispness.
