NOT YOUR USUAL LEMON MERINGUE PIE
In her version of lemon meringue pie, Gale Gand forgoes a traditional crust for quick-baked sheets of sugared phyllo dough, which she layers with house-made lemon curd and a brown-sugar meringue. The recipe, a classic at Tru restaurant in Chicago, appears in Gand's book Butter Sugar Flour Eggs (Clarkson Potter).Recipe by Gale Gand, from 50 Hall of Fame Best New Chefs: Hometown Heroes, July 2008 edition.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F
- Cut 2 sheets of parchment paper to fit a large baking sheet.
- Place 1 sheet of the parchment on a work surface.
- Top with a sheet of phyllo and brush with the melted butter.
- Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of the granulated sugar over the phyllo.
- Repeat with 2 more sheets of phyllo so that you have a stack of 3 sugared sheets.
- Using a ruler, trim the phyllo to a 12-by-16-inch rectangle, then cut it into twelve 4-inch squares.
- Slide the parchment onto a baking sheet and top with the second sheet of parchment paper.
- Bake for 18 minutes, until the phyllo squares are golden and crisp. Let cool completely.
- Preheat the broiler.
- Put the brown sugar in a food processor; pulse to break up any lumps.
- In the bowl of a standing electric mixer fitted with a whisk, beat the egg whites at medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
- Beat in the brown sugar at high speed, a few tablespoons at a time, until the whites are glossy, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Transfer the meringue to a pastry bag with a plain tip.
- Spoon a dollop of lemon curd onto each phyllo square.
- Pipe a layer of meringue over the lemon curd (alternately, you can spoon the meringue over the curd).
- Broil 6 inches from the heat for 1 minute, or until lightly toasted.
- Set 6 phyllo squares on plates and top them with the remaining 6 squares.
- Garnish with raspberries, cashews, and serve.

Steps:
- 1. In a 2- to 3-quart pan, mix 1 1/4 cups sugar with 6 tablespoons cornstarch and salt. Whisk in 1/2 cup cold water, lemon peel, and lemon juice, blending thoroughly. Whisk in the egg yolks. Add the butter and whisk in 1 1/2 cups boiling water. 2. Set pan over medium-high heat and stir with a flexible spatula until mixture boils, about 7 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and stir filling 1 minute more. 3. Pour filling into pie crust. 4. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup sugar with the remaining 2 teaspoons cornstarch. 5. In a deep bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar with a mixer on high speed (use whisk attachment if available) until very foamy and no liquid whites remain in bottom of bowl. Continue to beat at high speed and gradually add the sugar-starch mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time. Then beat until whites hold stiff, glossy peaks. 6. Spoon meringue onto hot pie filling. With a spatula, swirl meringue to cover filling completely, touching the rim of the pie shell. 7. Bake in a 325° oven until meringue is browned, about 25 minutes. Set pie on rack until cool, about 3 hours. Serve, or invert a large bowl over pie (take care not to touch meringue) and chill up to 1 day.

THE ULTIMATE LEMON MERINGUE PIE
I made this pie this weekend. It's adapted from The Perfect Recipe cookbook by Pam Anderson. Wow, we agreed it was the best lemon meringue pie recipe we'd ever had. The filling is very lemony sweet/tart and fluffy. The meringue is tall and fluffy/light. Prep times are estimated. It takes a little time, but is well worth it. Lemon meringue pie was first invented in Philadelphia. This recipe represents the Mid-Atlantic U.S. region.
