Instruction 1

Position a rack in center of oven; preheat to 250°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using an electric mixer, beat egg whites and cream of tartar in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Beat in vanilla. Gradually beat in cornstarch, then sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time; continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Fold in pistachios. Spread meringue on parchment paper in a 1/3" layer (meringue will not completely cover parchment). Bake meringue until crisp, about 55 minutes. Let cool, then break into small pieces. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight.
