If you don't have a kitchen scale, you can still cook and bake. I wouldn't propose highly precise recipes here so it's okay to be approximate. Then, here is some equivalences :
  • 1 soup spoon of flour = 12 g
  • 1 soup spoon of sugar = 15 g

For the oven :

Method

How to whisk the egg whites until they form peaks by hand? 





Translation :

Use a very clean bowl (I rather like to use a stainless steel one). Pour egg whites (room temperature). You can add some lemon juice and a pinch of salt to help. Also using a cold bowl might be helpful. Then you have to describe circles with your wrist to put air into egg whites until then form peaks. 






How to incorporate egg white into a mix?






Translation :



Incorporate 1/3 of egg white into the mix. At this stage, the point is to softened the dough. Then poor the mix into the egg white. With the whisk or a spatula, lift the egg white to drop it on the dough. Mix delicately until homogenization.




Pleasure and Firework in your mouth My Dear !
