Lemon Meringue Pie

This adaptation of Alice Waters’s lemon meringue pie, which came to the Times in a 1987, takes a little time, but your efforts will be rewarded with a spectacular centerpiece dessert: a cloud of toasted meringue atop a pool of buttery and bright lemon curd in a light and flaky crust. If you can’t find Meyer lemons, which aren’t as tangy as regular lemons, and have a spicy, floral note, regular supermarket lemons will make a worthy substitute. This recipe makes an elegant pie with a restrained ratio of lemon curd to meringue, but if you want more of a showstopper — the towering kind you might find in a diner or at a church picnic, for instance — you can double the filling as some of our readers do, and as we did for the photograph above. (Although you certainly could, we did not double the meringue. If you don't, save the leftover egg whites for another use.)
