Meringue Cases
Put the whites of four fresh eggs into a clean bowl
with a tiny pinch of salt, and whip them till quite stiff;
mix in quickly half a pound of castor sugar with a wooden
spoon. The mixture must be lightly worked after the
sugar is added. Warm a baking-tin, and rub it over with
a piece of white wax, and when cool put the mixture out
on to the tin with a forcing bag and a plain pipe in
quantity about the size of a crown piece. Dredge them
over with Marshall's Icing Sugar, and put into a very
moderately-heated oven for two or three hours, letting
them bake a nice fawn colour; when they are dry remove
them from the tin, and when cold use for ices or creams.
