Add poppy seeds, salt and cornstarch mixture. Cook until thick. Dissolve gelatin in cold water. Add to cooked mixture. Add vanilla and mix well. Cool. Beat egg whites until stiff. Gradually add cream of tartar and remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Gently fold into cooled filling. Pour filling into crust and refrigerate. Serve with whipped cream.
