In a small bowl, beat egg whites and cream of
tartar until peaks form. Gradually add 3/4 cup
sugar, and beat until very stiff and shiny peaks
form. Fold 1/3 of the whites into the batter, then
quickly fold in remaining whites until no streaks
remain. Turn batter into ungreased 10-inch tube
pan.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 60
minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the
center comes out clean. Invert cake and cool
completely in pan. When cool, loosen edges and
shake pan to remove cake.
