Doreen's Lemon Meringue Pie is a delightful dessert that marries the tanginess of lemon with the sweetness of meringue, all wrapped up in a buttery, flaky crust. This classic pie is perfect for any occasion, offering a burst of fresh citrus flavor with every bite.
- Make sure to separate the egg whites carefully to ensure that no yolk gets mixed in, as this will affect the meringue's ability to whip up properly.
- Use fresh lemons for the juice and zest for the best flavor. Bottled lemon juice can be used in a pinch, but fresh is always better.
- When making the meringue, ensure that your mixing bowl and beaters are completely clean and dry for best results.
- Spread the meringue all the way to the edges of the pie to seal it against the crust. This prevents it from shrinking away from the sides during baking.
- Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing to ensure that the filling sets properly and the slices hold together.
By following these steps and tips, you'll be able to create a delicious and beautiful lemon meringue pie that is sure to impress. Enjoy the perfectly balanced taste of zesty lemon curd topped with fluffy meringue, all in a tender and crisp crust.
