Excellent! My husband said this tasted like restaurant pie! Hint: I heated the lemon filling on medium, and let the eggs sit in room temp for a half hour or so before making the meringue. Turned out perfect!

Really good and is a "husband pleaser". The instructions were clear and accurate and the end product was much appreciated. Thanks.

This was a big hit at my family dinner. It was a bit finicky when I was making it. I had to cook it way longer to get it to get the right consistency. Well worth it though. I would make this again!

I should have read the reviews first. The pie was horrid, it didn't thicken, and the merang....forget it. It didn't lift, or thicken nothing. I suggest you find a different recipe.

Unlike the chiffon pies that so many enjoy, I find this one not as tart. This is like the one on the side of a major selling cornstarch, but, since I buy generic, I was glad to find it on the web. I did not use the double boiler but cooked it over a low heat. For those that had a runny mixture, you didn't cook it long enough. Stir constantly and when it starts to "boil" like a "lava" bed, it will be thick enough to pour. The meringue also takes a long time to whip, so it is best to use an electric mixer. Also, egg whites whip better into meringue when they are at room temperature.

This was runny, but tasted good. Just be careful when carrying and cutting it (it dripped all over me-LOL)! Flavor was great. I did not use a double boiler, just stir often and cook at a LOW temperature. THanks

I liked the freshness of the ingredients used in this recipe! I did alter the proportions of sugar to lemon and lemon rind, so as to create a filling which had a more lemon-y flavor to it. I added more lemon juice and less sugar. Otherwise, it's good recipe! :-)

Where did I go wrong?!?!? I followed the recipe to a 'T' and my lemon filling did not thicken as directed. So I ended up with lemom liquid:-( I'd like to try this recipe again-any advice from my fellow chefs?

This is the best lemon pie recipe I've tasted!!! I registered here just to leave this review. I didnt have lemon zest but I added a few drops of lemon extract. Also, I dont have a double boiler but it cooks fine in a pan if you stir continually and watch the temperature. YUM!! Thank you for adding it!!

The pie was a little tart for my taste and I didn't even add the rind. It also did not set up very well. The filling was quite watery. The meringue was probably my fault, flat as could be, but it did have a nice sweet flavor. I will be looking for another lemon pie recipe.

This is by far the best lemon filling! Just the right amount of tartness and flavor, as well as, a wonderful consistancy that doesn't run when cut into. Yummy!

I liked this recipe. I will make it again, but I'll probably leave out the lemon zest, as I didn't like the texture it added to the pie. Otherwise, it was very tasty.
