A failed meringue cost me 4 hours and 6 batches before I figured out it was my bowl
Kept getting soupy peaks at my apartment in Portland because of a speck of grease I couldn't even see. Turned out my plastic mixing bowl was holding onto fat from taco night, has this bitten anyone else or do you all just use glass?
Glass all the way, no exceptions. Plastic holds onto grease no matter how hard you scrub it, and that tiny bit of fat kills your peaks every time. Save yourself the headache and switch to glass or stainless.
