Corey's Lemon Pie by www.country-cooking.com
1 Recipe
2 Lemons, juiced
1 Lemon rind, grated
2 T Corn starch
3 Eggs, separated
1 1/2 c Sugar
3 T Flour
1 ts Butter or margarine
2 c Boiling water
Sift flour, corn starch, and sugar into a saucepan. Add butter. Add the
lemon juice to the egg yolks and beat with a rotary egg beater until they
are thick and velvety. Add this to the sugar, corn starch, butter and
flour mixture and stir until free from lumps. You may need to add a few
tablespoons of cold water to make thin enough not to lump. Pour the boiling
water over lemon mixture. Set on the stove and let come to a boil,
stirring constantly. And here is a secret; Your pie will have a better
flavor if it scorches just a tiny bit. Add grated lemon rind.
Let cool, stirring often. Pour into pie shell, and add meringue. Do not
flatten the meringue, but let it stand in peaks. Brown slightly.
