1/2 cup white corn syrup

1/2 cup water

Beat egg whites until fluffy. In a saucepan, cook sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt until soft, semi-firm ball stage. Pour 1/4 of the sauce over egg whites, and cook the rest of the sauce until it reaches hard ball stage (260 degrees). Slowly pour the remaining sauce over egg whites, beating constantly.
