Add the water, parsley and cilantro and bring to a boil. Add the rice and stir well. When the liquid returns to a boil, stir again, then cover the pot and reduce the heat to low.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients whenever possible, especially for the egg whites and sugar, as this will result in a lighter and fluffier texture.
- Make sure the egg whites are at room temperature before whipping them, as this will help them reach their full potential volume.
- Whip the egg whites gradually, starting on low speed and increasing it as the whites begin to foam.
- Continue whipping the egg whites until they reach stiff peaks, which means they should hold their shape when the whisk is lifted out of the bowl.
- Add the sugar gradually to the egg whites, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to whip.
- Once all the sugar has been added, continue whipping the egg whites for a few more minutes, until they are glossy and thick.
- When folding the egg whites into the other ingredients, be gentle and use a spatula to avoid deflating them.
- Bake the snow drops at a low temperature for a long time, as this will help them to rise and set properly.
- Allow the snow drops to cool completely before serving, as this will help them to hold their shape.
Conclusion:
Portuguese snow drops are a delicious and delicate treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized with different flavors and colors. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced baker, you are sure to enjoy making and eating these delightful cookies.
