Meringue is a light, airy dessert made primarily from whipped egg whites and sugar, often with a touch of cream of tartar or lemon juice to stabilize the mixture. Originating in European cuisine, meringue has been a beloved confection since the 17th century, frequently used as a topping for pies, a base for cookies, or layered in cakes. While low in fat, its high sugar content makes it energy-dense, a factor to consider for those monitoring calorie or sugar intake. On the plus side, egg whites provide a source of protein, though their overall contribution is minimal in this sweet treat. Its versatility and delicate texture make it a favorite in many desserts, though it is best enjoyed in moderation due to its sugary nature.
