to 350F. Mix 1/3 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon cornstarch in small bowl. Beat
egg whites in large bowl until foamy; add cream of tartar and beat until
soft peaks form. Add sugar mixture 1 tablespoonful at a time, beating until
stiff peaks form after each addition. Spread cooled lemon filling in crust.
Spoon dollops of meringue around edge of pie atop filling. Spoon remaining
meringue onto center of pie. Spread meringue to cover filling, mounding in
center and sealing completely to crust edge. Using rubber spatula or spoon,

are light brown, about 12 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool completely.
refrigerate pie until cold, about 1 1/2 hours. (Can be prepared 3 hours
ahead. Keep refrigerated.) 8 Servings Bon Apptit July 1995
