Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F/170°C/gas 3. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.

2. Sift the flour and salt into a medium bowl. Beat the eggs, 1/2 cup (100 g) superfine sugar, and vanilla in a double boiler over barely simmering water.

3. Beat until the batter falls off the beaters in ribbons. Use a large rubber spatula to fold in the dry ingredients. Fit a pastry bag with a 1/2-inch (1-cm) star tip.

4. Fill the pastry bag, twist the opening tightly closed, and squeeze out 3 x 3/4­inch (8 x 2-cm) lengths spacing them 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart on the prepared cookie sheets.

5. Sprinkle with the remaining superfine sugar. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until crisp and dry to the touch.

6. Cool on the sheets until the cookies firm slightly. Transfer to racks to finish cooling.
