"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

4 egg whites
salt (or cream of tartar)
3/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
3 drops lemon extract

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Celsius.

Beat the egg whites with a pinch of the salt or cream of tartar until foam starts to build up. Then add in the sugar little by little until a shiny meringue forms.

Fold in the sifted flour and lemon extract carefully so as not to lose volume.

Fill a pastry bag with the mixture. Squeeze out 3-centimeter-diameter circles on a baking tray covered with aluminum foil. Try to keep the tip of the pastry bag very close the the pan so the circles do not have much volume.

Once the baking tray is filled, lift it up a bit and let it fall on the table to knock any bubbles out of the circles and let them flatten even more. Let rest for a few minutes.

Bake for 4 to 5 minutes then let cool another 5 minutes still inside the baking tray but outside the oven before removing.
