the shell in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 10 minutes, or
until it is browned lightly. Let the shell cool on a rack.

In a large bowl beat the yolks with the condensed milk and stir in the lime
juice, a little at a time, stirring to combine the filling well. Spoon the
filling into the shell and chill the pie for 1 hour. In a bowl beat the egg
whites with a pinch of salt until they hold soft peaks, add the sugar,
beating, 1 tablespoon at a time, and beat the meringue until it holds stiff
peaks. Spread the meringue over the filling and bake the pie in the middle
