PINEAPPLE MERINGUE PIE
This was my mother's favorite pie. My grandmother was sure to make one each time we went to visit her. Refrigerate any leftovers.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine 1 cup sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a large saucepan. Stir in pineapple and juice until blended. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Place egg yolks in a bowl and gradually stir in 1 cup of hot filling. Add to the mixture in the saucepan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice and keep warm.
- Beat egg whites and cream of tartar for meringue in a bowl until soft peaks form. Beat in remaining 6 tablespoons sugar gradually, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high speed, until stiff peaks form.
- Pour hot filling into the pastry shell. Spread meringue over the filling, sealing edges to crust.
- Bake in the preheated oven until meringue is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour; then refrigerate for at least 3 hours before cutting.
