Oh, for Pete’s sake, don’t cry! The recipe is in a reply to the comments if you sift through. Totally easy to make. The only adaptation is that I used castor sugar instead of granulated sugar in the meringue

Thanks but I think they were removed for being images maybe. I don't see them. I can see the photo of the book on your profile but clicking them doesn't load it up in the thread 😞

I’ll be honest I’m shocked. It turned out so well considering it’s my first go at it, completely unfiltered photo just a snapshot.

My French grandmother used to come visit us once a year and make homemade lemon meringue pie, your picture took me back <3

Later in life my grandma started tying to make it healthier and would make the crust out of Phyllo dough, yuck! The og crust days were the best

This looks good! 😃

My lemon meringue attempts end up deflated or liquified! 😢

I let out an audible gasp when I saw this picture. That's a really pretty meringue.

Can I ask what torch you used? Or was this perfection accomplished in an oven?

Thank you this was actually my very first attempt at a lemon meringue pie🙂. I think I just lucked out and got a good recipe. To be honest, I just got a new kitchen aid at Christmas and wanted to use the whip attachment. That’s why I decided to make it

Oh sorry meant to respond sooner!

I think the gas stove would help a lot, I'd be surprised if an electric could get that same browning. Still very impressive though, and the care you put into is evident.
