Processing the sugar and the almonds together will prevent the almonds from turning into a paste and keep them mealy.
To stabilize the egg whites, add a pinch of cream of tartar before you start beating them. This will stop them from separating if the equipment is not perfectly dry or completely grease-free.
To make superfine and powdered sugar with regular granulated sugar: process it in a food processor or coffee grinder with a metal blade. Just process a little more sugar than needed on high speed, for 1-2 minutes, depending on the desired consistency. Tap the top of the processor to let the sugar settle then process for another 10-20 seconds. That’s it!
