Procedures:
| 1 | I got this recipe from a "cracker," and it will dispute the previous statement that all will agree on how to make the best key lime pie. | | 2 | My tree froze, but came back, so we"ve enjoyed this recipe a lot this year. | | 3 | Mix together gelatin, 1/3 c sugar and salt in saucepan. | | 4 | Combine slightly beaten egg yolks, water & lime juice. | | 5 | Add to gelatin mixture. | | 6 | Place over low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin dissolves, about 6 min. remove from heat and add rind. | | 7 | Cool. | | 8 | Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. | | 9 | Gradually add remaining 1/3 c sugar and beat until stiff. | | 10 | Fold in gelatin mixture. | | 11 | Turn into pastry shell and chill until firm. | | 12 | Garnish with whipped cream and lime slices if desired. | | 13 | Note: to make lime chiffon cream pie, fold in ?c heavy cream, whipped before turning into pastry shell. | | 14 | This is a much lighter pie than the one using sweetened condensed milk, and i think it has a more of the flavor of key limes. | | 15 | Ann, fl |
