    1 1/2 cups egg whites, about 12 large eggs, or buy

    1 teaspoon cream of tartar powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 1/3 cup sugar
    1 1/3 cups sifted flour

    Beat egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tartar and the salt;
    beat until whites begin to hold their shape. Gradually add

    into egg white mixture. Combine yolks and orange rind; beat
    until thick and lemon colored. Gradually fold yolk mixture into
    egg white mixture. Pour into an ungreased, and possibly line
