Details:

Cream of Tartar (potassium bitarate) crystallizes on wine barrels during fermentation. They're scraped and harvested, then processed into a fine powder for baking powder, tartaric acid, or Cream of Tartar.

Cream of Tartar is used to stabilize and increase the volume of whipped egg whites. Meringues and soufflés rely significantly on beaten egg whites for texture and structure.

Cream of Tartar prevents cooked sugar from crystallizing, giving candies and frostings a creamier texture. Combining it with baking soda creates leavening carbon dioxide gas.

Cream of Tartar has a 7,000-year history. Potassium bitartrate crystals were found in an antique wine jar. Its contemporary use in cuisine began in 1768, and it became a popular French ingredient.
