- In a bowl, using an electric mixer, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition, until mixture is thick and glossy. Beat in zest.
- Drop 2 tablespoons of mixture onto trays, 1 inch apart. Using a dessert spoon, press a shallow indent in center of each. Bake 1 1/2 hours, until crisp and dry. Leave in a turned-off oven to cool.
