with lemon season upon us, it seems that every one here at
work is bringing in their surplus harvest trying to get rid
of it. several people have been bugging me to write up a
recipe that will use up as many lemons as possible in a
relatively simple manner. here, then is the result:
BITTER LEMON PIE (for 9" pie)
2-3 thin skinned lemons sliced paper thin
2 1/4 cups sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup lemon juice
mix the lemons and sugar and let sit for at least an hour
whisk the lemon juice and eggs together
spread the lemons in the pie shell and pour egg mixture over
them
cover the pie with the top crust and seal the edges.
make several slits in the cover and bake in a pre-heated
oven at 375 for 20 min.
turn the temperature to 350 and continue baking for 35
min. (if crust starts to burn, cover edges with foil)
let cool for at least 30 min.
CRUST
3 cups flour
2 Tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
3 sticks cold butter
3 Tbsp ice water (very cold)
mix the dry ingredients
cut in the butter
add just enough water to hold mixture together
split into two pieces and wrap each in wax paper and
place in freezer for 30 min.
roll each piece out (one for the crust, one for the
top)
