This is a Puerto Rican recipe. The meringues are as light as a cloud and not messy, you can make a lot of them, and they have a hint of lemon.

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 egg whites

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these meringues turned out really bad. They were too hard and they tasted like burnt sugar.

These meringues were good, but they weren't as good as I was hoping they would be. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

These meringues were a bit too dry for my liking. I think I would add a little more moisture next time, maybe some whipped cream or yogurt.

These meringues were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These meringues were a complete disaster! They were too runny and they didn't hold their shape at all. I'm not sure what went wrong.
