Very very good. Crust came out too tough but almost certainly my fault.

Looks great! How did it taste, that's the important part anyway.

Really good! The filling set beautifully, the merengue was pleasantly stiff. Very lemony, not too tart.

The crust was too tough/chewy though. I'm not sure where I went wrong exactly, but I'm 0/3 on pie crusts so far. All different recipies. Those things are delicate beasts. But it wasn't too much of a distraction from the great flavors.

Wish I had a propane torch to brown the merengue, but ah well.
