I am going to have a mental breakdown over meringue

1/2 cup of egg whites and 1tsp cream of tartar. The egg whites are room temperature. I washed, dried, and then rinsed the mixer and bowl with vinegar and dried again. I can’t get them to stiffen. I’ve tried a kitchen aid, a hand mixer, and an immersion blender 😩
I have spent hours trying this. I’ve started over several times

You're not the first and not the last. 😅 I never dared to try meringue yet.

@CrazyMusicLover If you even have spare whites and are considering to make meringues not to waste them, just throw them in the bin. This way you'll waste only the eggs and not also your time with them

@Elessar Make a fried egg without a yolk like I did the other day. 😆
