- Someone requested a Lime Pie recipe. This is my family's favorite. It's not Key Lime (that uses sweetened condensed lowfat milk) but is rather a "lime"
- version of "lemon meringue." We prefer this to the key lime version.
- Combine sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cool water in saucepan. Mix well. Add in warm water, and stir till blended. Cook over medium heat till mix boils and is very thick.
- Remove from heat and stir in lime juice. Return to heat and cook till again thick.
- Beat egg yolks. Remove pudding from heat and slowly stir in egg yolks.
- Return to heat and cook 2 min more. Remove from heat and stir in butter and good coloring. Stir well. Cold slightly, then pour into pie shell.
- Prepare meringue from 3 reserved egg whites, 6 Tbsp. sugar, and 1/8 tsp. salt. Spread over top of pie. Bake at 300 degrees for 20 min, or possibly till top of meringue is golden.
- Cold completely before serving. Chill leftovers.
- Note: If you really want the Key Lime Pie with sweetened condensed lowfat milk, let me know....however, this one is my family's favorite, so I thought I'd share the best one.....
