Lemon Meringue Pie







My famous Lemon Meringue pie from start to finish. Every part of this pie and every pie that I make is from scratch.  I use a crust receipe that my grandma used and it makes up three 9in crusts, that way during the holidays, I can just grab a pre-made wrapped crust out of my fridge and make whatever is needed.  It is flaky, buttery and stays crisp for at least 3 days after being prepared, filled and baked with any kind of filling.   The lemon filling is tart but sweet enough to keep you from having lock jaw. :)  And the meringue is fluffy, light and airy and turns out very pretty.  As long as it cools completelly before I put it in the refridgerator, it will not shrink or get water buds on top.
