Beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Add in the cream of tartar and salt and continue beating until the whites are stiff but not dry. Add in sugar, a little at a time, beating it in well. Spread the meringue over the pie, being certain to cover the surface completely, including the edge of the crust. If you are deft with the pastry tube, you may pipe the meringue over the pie, using a #6 rosette tube. Bake the meringue at 350 degrees 15 to 18 min, or possibly till it is lightly browned.
Note: The secret to keeping themeringue from shrinking is to make sure there are no gaps between the pie crust and the meringue.
