Banana Meringue Pudding, Old Fashioned From Scratch

Banana Meringue Pudding
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups milk
3 eggs, separated
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
24 small or 16 large vanilla wafers
3 large ripe bananas
Mix 2/3 cup sugar, cornstarch, salt, and milk in the top part of a double boiler. Put over boiling water and cook, stirring, until thickened. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add a small amount to egg yolks, stirring. Put back in a double boiler and cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Cool and add vanilla. Arrange alternate layers of wafers, banana slices, and pudding in a 1 1/2-quart casserole, ending with the pudding. Whip egg whites until foamy; add sugar gradually and whip until stiff. Pile lightly on pudding. Bake in a preheated hot oven (400-425 degrees) for 5 minutes. Makes 6 servings.
Cream of Tartar - helps stabilize whipped egg whites in meringues and cakes.
