Directions:
1. Position racks in upper third and center of your oven and preheat to 250 degrees. Coat two large baking sheets with cooking spray and line with parchment paper.
2. Whip egg whites and salt in a grease-free bowl with an electric hand mixer set on high until soft peaks from. Gradually beat in sugar and gelatin powder and beat until peaks become stiff and shiny. Fold in the rosewater and vinegar.
3. Transfer meringue to a pastry bag fitted with a 1-inch-wide star tip. Spacing about 1 inch apart, pipe 1-inch- wide meringues onto sheets. Bake until meringues look set, about 1 hour. Turn oven off, and let meringues completely cool and dry in oven. Carefully lift meringues of parchment and store in an airtight container.
