1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon white vinegar
3 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 eggs yolk
3 tablespoons lemon peels grated
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 cups whipped cream

In a small mixer bowl at medium speed, beat cream until soft peaks form. Spread half of the whipped cream over meringue. Carefully spread lemon mixture over cream, top with remaining cream and sprinkle with walnuts. Chill, uncovered, for 24 hours before serving.
