Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 eggs, separated
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
2 teaspoons lemon zest
1 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup white sugar
1 ⅓ cups water
2 teaspoons lemon zest
⅓ cup lemon juice
1 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Slowly beat in 1 cup sugar, then 2 teaspoons lemon rind; continue to beat until very stiff and glossy, about 10 minutes. Spoon meringue into well buttered pie plate, and spread evenly to form a shell. Bake at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) for 50 minutes, until firm. Cool.
  • Beat egg yolks, slowly adding remaining 1 cup sugar, beat until thick. Mix cornstarch with lemon juice, and add to yolk mixture. Stir in water and 2 teaspoons lemon rind. Cook over low heat until thick and bubbling. Remove and chill, covering with plastic wrap to keep film from forming on surface.
  • Beat whipping cream, and fold into cold lemon custard. Spoon into meringue shell. Cover, and chill 3 to 4 hours before serving.

I wasn't a big fan of this pie. The filling was too runny and the crust was too thick. I think I'll stick to my old lemon pie recipe.

This pie is a bit too tart for my taste, but I'm sure it would be perfect for someone who loves lemon desserts. The filling is smooth and creamy, and the crust is flaky and buttery. Overall, it's a good pie.

This pie is a waste of time and ingredients. The filling is bland and the crust is soggy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pie turned out really dense and dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

This pie is just okay. The filling is a bit too sweet for my taste, and the crust is a bit too dry. I think I'll try a different lemon pie recipe next time.
