Cooking tips

If you don't like cookies that are very sweet, you can reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe.

The size of the eggs you use to scoop out the whites will determine the final consistency of the batter. The larger the egg, the larger the white, and the more it will spread on the baking sheet, so leave some space between the cookies.

When placing the dough on the baking sheet, use a pastry bag to get beautiful and even cookies.
