Grease and dust with flour a large baking sheet or 2 smaller ones.
Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they hold soft peaks, then beat in 2 tablespoons of the sugar and continue beating until the whites are very smooth, shiny, and stiff.
Using the same beaters, beat the egg yolks with the mixer until light colored and doubled in size.
Gradually add the rest of the sugar and continue beating until very thick and tripled in size. Beat in the vanilla.
Sift the flour and salt together, then fold it and the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture, alternating the two.
