Depending upon how tart you like your lemon pie to be, choose the appropriate lemons. Meyers Lemons are sweeter as they are hybrid lemon mixed with a mandarin orange. Whereas the standard lemon is much tarter - which I like! I love the contrast...
Original Recipe Yield: 1 frosting for two layer 8 or 9 inch round cake
This Lemon Meringue pie reminds me of a Lemon Chiffon, beautiful creamy lemon yellow. Yum. Easy in the sense you mix and bake the lemon chiffon in the pie shell instead of the stovetop method used for Southern Style Lemon Meringue.Â
