I was afraid you would never see my recipe, lost amid all the noise.

A straight-sided pan will be hard to serve from, but other than that I
don't think the type of pan makes any difference. The crust and the
filling are cooked before you bake it. The 15 minutes in the oven is
mainly to cook the meringue (it also browns the crust a little more.)
The lemon filling doesn't touch the pan, so the aluminium shouldn't matter.

you could use whipped cream instead of meringue if you can't find
ingredients for it...my mom never did the meringue, saying it was too
much work, and always went with whipped cream instead.

Take a look at this video, Pandora.

Some thing may become more clear.

Gotta love those videos...... they make it all look sooooooo easy :-)


But the 1/4 cup of cornstarch/cornflour is a bit of a worry!!


If you're going to use a thickening agent like that, I'd probably go for
gelatine.

Not for me, as I don't make this pie. Eaten it from
Maine to Kali-For-Nia, and don't recall ever having
a bad piece of pie. Well, maybe in Hatch, NM.

Alex, who made pineapple this afternoon.

Not exactly. In that part of the country, you are
continually asked, with almost every meal, "Green
or Red?" They're not talking Christmas here. That
translates "Do you want green chilis or red chilis
with that?" If you've never eaten chili ice cream.
you have missed a genuinely existentialist
experience. Hatch, NM is the chilihead Mecca.

>How did you 'make' a pineapple this afternoon??


Carefully, after a couple glasses of Caberbet/Merlot.

Google an image, Pandora... here's a standard lemon meringue pie baked
in a standard Pyrex Pie Plate (pan).

Yep, that's what they look like. But my recipe is lighter in color
(unless you have *really* dark yolked eggs) because it's made with half
flour and half cornstarch instead of all cornstarch. I think it has a
nicer texture.

Mmmm... I really don't like flour as a thickener in lemon meringue or
cream pies, except for one recipe I have for wild blueberry pie.

FANTASTIC! Now I remember that many years ago a friend of mine made it gor
me and I liked it very much. I had never taste a meringue lemon pie before.
She has made it in an alluminium pan.

YW! You just need a pie pan, Pandora. I happen to have Pyrex in my
kitchen, but any type is acceptable. You're looking for the general
shape, not the material it's made of.

Hmmm. Not sure how you would fare with *no* pie pan, but I'm sure if
you figure it out we'll have loads of pictures as proof! Good
luck in your pie pan hunt. I take it pies are not typical in Italy?

You should rapidly gain 10 k if you make all these. Lemon Merigue Pie is a
homey dessert mums make for their kids. I used to get so excited when I
came in from school and there was one cooling on a rack on the kitchen
table. The only thing I liked better was yeast doughnuts piled into a puffy
triangle waiting for us.
