Have you ever wondered; I know I have; where cream of tartar comes from. After all where would our meringues be without it.
Well here goes: Wine is aged in a cask and when the wine has matured and is poured out; what is left round the sides of the cask is Cream of Tartar. They just scrape if off, clean it up and Walla! there you have it.
I thought this was interesting and hope you do too!
