Sour Lemon Meringue Pie
1 prebaked pie shell or shortbread crust 3 egg yolks 4 whole eggs 3/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice 2 tablespoons cornstarch 1 cup sugar 1 tablespoon butter, cut into chunks
Place bottom of double boiler with water over medium heat. Squeeze lemons. Stir cornstarch into lemon juice until there are no lumps of cornstarch in top half of double boiler*. (I put lemon juice and cornstarch in small jar and shake until cornstarch is dissolved.) Separate 3 eggs, reserving whites for meringue. Beat egg yolks and eggs into lemon juice and cornstarch mixture. Add sugar. Reduce heat to simmer in bottom of double boiler. Place top half of double boiler on bottom half. Stir constantly until mixture coats the back of a spoon and thickens. It goes from thin to thick very suddenly. Remove from heat and stir in butter until completely melted. Pour into pie shall. Top with meringue, sealing edges well. Place in preheated 450 degree oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Use shallow pie shell if using large eggs, use deep dish if using jumbo eggs. I use a Nilla Wafer or Shortbread Crust rather than regular pie shell. * If you don't have a double boiler, use a small metal bowl floated in a pot.
Meringue
3 egg whites at room temperature 1/4 teaspoon cream of tarter 3/4 cup sugar 1/2 teaspoon real vanilla
Beat egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tarter. Beat just until soft peaks form. Beat in sugar 1 tablespoon at a time until stiff peaks form. Beat in vanilla. Spread over top of pie, being sure to seal edges well. Bake at 450 degree oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until meringue is lightly browned. Cool in draft free area. Refrigerate when pie is completely cool.
This recipe can also be used to make Lemon Snow Pudding. When ready to start cooking filling, make meringue. Cook lemon filling. Gently fold meringue into hot lemon filling. Put in individual pudding cups or bowl. Cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to serve. |
