Instructions

  • 1.   Roll out the dough in the mold. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes at 180°C (350°F).
  • 2.   LEMON CURD (1/4): Using the mixer, add the butter, sugar, and lemon juice, then start at Speed 5, 60°C (140°F), for 2 minutes.
  • 3.   LEMON CURD (2/4): Soften the gelatin sheet in a bowl of cold water (5 minutes).
  • 4.   LEMON CURD (3/4): Add 2 whole eggs and 2 egg yolks (reserve the egg whites for the meringue), then mix at Speed 7 for 30 seconds (without heating).
    Then heat at 80°C (175°F), at Speed 5, for 9 minutes.
  • 5.   LEMON CURD (4/4): Add the softened and squeezed gelatin sheet, then mix at Speed 7 for 30 seconds.
    Make sure the gelatin is completely dissolved.
    Place the lemon curd in a wide dish and let it set in the refrigerator for a while (a few hours if possible).
  • 6.   MERINGUE: Wash and dry the Companion bowl well and attach the beater. Add the reserved 2 egg whites and powdered sugar to the bowl. Mix at Speed 9 for 8 minutes until the mixture sticks to the sides of the bowl.
  • 7.   Spread the lemon curd on the dough, then gently spread the meringue with a spatula.
    Use a blowtorch to brown the meringue (or bake for 10 minutes).

    Excellent recipe followed to the letter. I have tried several recipes for lemon meringue pie and this is the best. The quantities are optimal, except for the lemons, I only used 2. Do not take your eyes off your pie when you put it under the broiler (at 120 - 150 °C), it goes very quickly when it starts to brown. I would like to know the trick to make the meringue hold better and maintain a good texture.
