Sofia Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 When life gives you lemons... Make lemon merengue pie!Ā My new flatmate suggested I should do something with the big box of lemons a customer gave me, so I asked her what she liked made with lemons, and she said Lemon Merengue Pie, with real lemon curd! Immediately I looked for a recipe to attempt this delight I have never made before, none of its components actually! Decided to go with a recipe from Jamie Oliver and proceeded to do it in reverse order of the proper protocol as I normally do and also like normal, I got lucky and the curd set well and the pastry came out good and the Italian merengue was just about perfect!Ā Very much helped by the eggs from another customer that gives me lots of them from her very well cared for chickens!! MayĀ all these Northern Europeans coming here in search of "The Good Life" find me and give me theirĀ produce!!Ā The whole thing has been a journey of discovery for me and to finish it off had to use a kitchen lighter to try to burn the tips of the merengue, so really not the prettiest of results... We haven't tried it yet, will be super excited when we do, because this things has been 2 days in the making!! More pictures tomorrow of the unveiling and eating!! Ā Sorry @PedroĀ for hijacking your thread, specially when you are not here and are not going to eat any of this!!Ā Ā 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
