Bob Hope's Favorite Lemon Pie Recipe Ingredients: 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar 3 tablespoons cornstarch 1 cup boiling water 4 tablespoons lemon juice 2 tablespoons butter 4 lightly beaten egg yolks dash of salt grated lemon rind of a lemon 3 egg whites 2 tablespoons sugar 1 baked pie shell Combine the cornstarch and sugar in pot. Add water slowly, stirring constantly until thick and smooth. Add the lightly beaten egg yolks, butter, lemon rind, lemon juice and salt. Mix well and cook for 3 minutes. Pour into a baked pie shell. Make a meringue from the 3 egg whites that have been beaten stiff with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Top the lemon pie with the meringue. Bake in a 300 degree oven for 15 minutes or until meringue is lightly browned. Cool to a room temperature before refrigerating. This will help keep the meringue from weeping. Recipe by Bob Hope, taken from the out of print cookbook "Think Christmas" Published by the Junion League of the City of Washington, 1975... Back to Pie Recipes Mrs. Rowe's Little Book of Southern Pies Legendary Recipes from Virginia's Queen of Pie. Mrs. Rowe, known fondly as "the Pie Lady" by legions of loyal customers, was the quintessential purveyor of all-American comfort food. Today her family carries on this legacy at the original Mrs. Rowe's Restaurant and Bakery in Staunton, Virginia, as well as at the new country buffet. The restaurant's bustling take-out counter sells a staggering 100 handmade pies every day! With the pies being snapped up that quickly, it's no wonder that Mrs. Rowe urged her customers to order dessert first. In Mrs. Rowe's Little Book of Southern Pies, recipes for Southern classics like Key Lime Pie and Pecan Fudge Pie sit alongside restaurant favorites like French Apple Pie and Original Coconut Cream Pie. Additional recipes gathered from family notebooks and recipe boxes include regional gems like Shoofly Pie and Lemon Chess Pie. With berries and custards and fudge--oh my!--plus a variety of delectable crusts and toppings, this mouth watering collection offers a little slice of Southern hospitality that will satisfy every type of sweet tooth--and convince even city slickers to take the time to smell the Fresh Peach Pie.
