What is cream of tartar?
Q: What is cream of tartar?
A: Cream of tartar (located in the spice section
at grocery stores) is a fine white powder used mainly used to
improve the stability and volume of beaten egg whites. It is
also used to give some candies and frosting a creamier consistency.
An interesting fact is its origin, cream of tartar is actually
derived from crystalline acid deposits on the inside of wine
barrels.
