Made a flat meringue for my lemon meringue pie... Why did my

>>8649636
because you're a failure, dear anon

Did you make sure that the eggs were room temperature?

>>8649648
That's probably thing I could guarantee

>>8649636
Did you let the whites come to room temperature Cold egg whites don't whip up as well.

Also was the mixing bowl and beaters SPOTLESSLY CLEAN? Even a trace of fat will interfere with mixing. This is also why getting even a bit of the yolk in with the whites will ruin a batch.

>>8649636
should have went for an italian meringue,

>>8649636
because your bowl wasn't clean or you mixed some some yolk in to the whites.

>>8649657
I'm gonna say something was wrong with the bowl (since it's plastic and probably has little scratches in it by now).

Any things you could add to counteract it? I saw two using either lemon juice or cornflour

Omg I just finished this season and couldn't get over how much of a qt ruby was. That fishing for compliments low self esteem before presenting her bakes got old though. Still would stick my dick in her cakes and put in her butthole and make her eat it off afterwards.

>metal bowl and beaters or whisk, make sure they're very clean

Good news! It's legal now (although possibly not for much longer)
