- You can chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out to make it easier to handle.
- When zesting the lemon, be careful to only take the yellow skin and avoid the bitter white pith underneath.
- Taste the filling before baking; if you prefer a sweeter pie, you can add a little more sugar.
- Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor, and strain it to remove any seeds or pulp.
- Bake the pie on the lower rack of the oven to ensure the crust cooks evenly and becomes golden brown.
