Cool.

To make meringue: In a saucepan, blend the cornstarch with the water.

Let stand until COMPLETELY COLD ( I just put it in the fridge for an hour to speed up the cooling process, but by all means it can sit out at room temperature too).

Gradually add in the sugar; beat until stiff, but not dry.
