LEMON MERINGUE PIE

Baked 8 or 9" Pie Shell
1-1/2 cups sugar
l/3 cup cornstarch
1-1/2 cups water
3 egg yolks, slightly beaten
3 tbsp. butter
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tbsp. grated lemon rind
3 egg whites

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Mix sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan. Gradually stir in water. Stir over medium heat until mixture thickens and boils. Boil for 1 minute.

Stir half of hot mixture into the slightly beaten egg yolks, in a thin stream, while whisking constantly. Whisk in the remaining hot mixture. Boil for another minute, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat and continue stirring until smooth. Blend in butter, lemon juice and lemon rind. Pour hot filling into a pre-baked pie shell.

Meringue:

3 eggs
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
6 tbsp. sugar

Beat egg whites with cream of tartar until frothy. Add sugar a spoonful at a time, while beating until egg whites hold stiff peaks when the mixer is lifted; the eggs should be glossy still - if you beat too long they will look dull.

Using a spatula, spread meringue evenly over top of pie all the way to the edges. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until top of pie is a delicate brown.

THANK YOU, for sharing this lemon pie recipe that I have been looking for a long time! I believe that it is the same one that I lost and have been looking for it everywhere. My favorite was in a Culinary Capers ReaLemon booklet that came with my bottle of lemon juice and I used that recipe for many years.

This booklet was some how lost in moving. Now I can make it again, thanks! Carol.
