Key Lime Pie

May 31st, 2009 | 3 Comments |
Key Lime Pie

Traditional Key Lime Pie is not baked, instead uses the acidity of the key limes to thicken & curdle the pie filling into a fork suitable delight.

Recent trends has the pie being baked to give it a little more substance and to make the eggs in the filling safe for consumption (raw eggs, I hear, can be bad)

I’ve added this to my list of foods to explore during my Florida sojourn… hoping to find the essence of a great key lime pie and share that with friends.

    I recently moved to Florida and have a key Lime tree that produces tons of limes. I’ve always loved key lime pies and have also heard that they are never baked. If you find a great non-baked recipe I’d appreciate a copy.

    Many thanks,

    Woody

    Hey Matthew,

    How’d the new recipe go? I hope it went well and that you’re not keeping it to yourself.

    Ciao,
