CREAMY LIME PIE



Creamy Lime Pie image

This dish was inspired by one of my trips to Oaxaca, Mexico where I found beautiful limes and incredible creams. Here I've blended those flavors to bring you a creative, tasty summer dessert.

Provided by Rick Bayless

Categories     dessert

Time 5h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening, or lard, chilled
kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 large egg yolk, slightly beaten
1 tablespoon cold water, plus additional tablespoon, if needed
Zest of one lime, plus more for garnish
3 large eggs, at room temperature
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2/3 cup sugar
8 ounces Sour cream or crème fraîche, at room temperature
6 tablespoons lime juice
6 tablespoons orange juice
1 1/2 tablespoons orange liqueur
1 cup whipped cream, preferably sweetened
Powdered sugar

Steps:

  • For the crust, combine the flour, butter, shortening (or lard), salt, and sugar in a food processor. Pulse until the flour looks a little damp (rather than powdery), with tiny bits of fat still visible. Alternatively, combine the ingredients in a large bowl and quickly work the fats into the flour with a pastry blender.
  • Add 1 to 2 tablespoons ice water. Continue to pulse the dough until it comes together in rough, stiff clumps; if there is unincorporated flour in the bottom of the bowl, sprinkle in a little more ice water.Transfer the dough into a bowl and gather together into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic and chill at least 1 hour.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie pan. Crimp the edge, trim off excess dough, and chill for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 F. Lightly oil a 15-inch piece of foil and lay it, oiled-side down, onto the crust; press down to line the crust snugly. Fill with beans or pie weights. Bake until the edges begin to brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Carefully remove the beans (or weights) and foil; return the crust to the oven and bake until it no longer looks moist, 8 to 10 minutes. If it bubbles at this point, gently press it down with the back of a spoon. Brush the beaten egg yolk over the crust, then let cool completely, 1 hour.
  • For the filling, whisk together the lime zest, eggs, all-purpose flour, and sugar in a large bowl. Stir in the cream, lime juice, orange juice, and orange liqueur.
  • Pour the filling into the cooled, parbaked pie crust. Place the pie in the lower third of the 350 F oven and bake until nearly set in the center (a knife inserted halfway between the edge and the center should come out clean), 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Remove pie from oven and cool on a wire rack; serve still warm if you can, dusted with powdered sugar and garnished with whipped cream and fresh lime zest.

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie, serving 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the Crust
1 cup (4 1/2 ounces) all-purpose flour (measured by scooping and leveling)
4 tablespoons (2 ounces) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch bits
2 tablespoons chilled vegetable shortening or rich-tasting lard, chilled, cut into 1/2-inch bits
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 egg yolk, beaten slightly
For the Filling
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped lime zest (colored rind only)
2/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons masa harina or 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons room-temperature Thick Cream or crème fraîche
6 tablespoons fresh lime juice
6 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 1/2 tablespoons orange liqueur
Powdered sugar, for garnish
About 2 cups Crimson Prickly Pear Sauce or other fruit sauce for serving

Steps:

  • 1. The dough. Measure the flour, butter, and shortening (or lard) into a bowl or a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Quickly work the fats into the flour with a pastry blender or pulse the food processor until the flour looks a little damp (not powdery) but tiny bits of fat are still visible. If using the food processor, transfer the mixture to a bowl.
  • Mix together the sugar, salt and 2 tablespoons of ice water. Using a fork, little by little work the ice-water mixture into the flour mixture. The dough will be in rough, rather stiff clumps; if there is unincorporated flour in the bottom of the bowl, sprinkle in a little more ice water and use the fork to work it together. Press the dough together into a flat disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch glass pie pan (I find it easiest to roll the dough onto the rolling pin, then unroll it onto the pie pan). Decoratively crimp the edge and trim the excess dough. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • 2. Prebaking the crust. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil a 15-inch piece of foil and lay it, oiled-side down, into the crust (heavy duty foil is too stiff to work here); press down to line the crust snugly. Fill with beans or pie weights and bake about 15 minutes, until beginning to brown around the edges. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. Carefully remove the beans (or weights) and foil, return the crust to the oven and bake 8 to 10 minutes, until it no longer looks moist. (If it bubbles at this point, gently press it down with the back of a spoon.) Brush the beaten egg yolk over the crust, then let cool completely.
  • 3. The Filling. Crack the eggs into a large bowl; measure in the lime zest, sugar and masa harina or flour, and beat by hand until thoroughly combined. Stir in the thick cream, lime juice, orange juice and orange liqueur.
  • 4. Baking the pie. Pour the filling into the prebaked pie shell, set in the lower third of the 350-degree oven, and bake until nearly set in the center (a knife inserted halfway between the edge and the center should come out clean), about 45 minutes.
  • Cool slightly; serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar and with sauce dribbled around.
  • Advance Preparation
  • This delicate pie is best served shortly after it is baked.

2 tablespoons fruit-flavored liqueur, such as crème de cassis, raspberry liqueur (framboise) or Grand Marnier
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon grated lime peel
2 cups assorted fresh berries, such as blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, boysenberries and sliced, hulled strawberries
Mint leaves (optional)

Steps:

  • For Crust:
  • Combine 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1/2 teaspoon grated lime peel and 1/4 teaspoon salt in large bowl. Add 1/2 cup chilled unsalted butter and cut in, using fingers or pastry cutter, until mixture resembles coarse meal. Beat 1 large egg yolk with 1 tablespoon water in small bowl until blended. Pour over flour mixture. Stir with fork until mixture forms moist clumps. Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap dough in plastic and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Roll dough out on lightly floured surface to 13-inch round. Roll up dough on rolling pin and transfer to 11-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Press dough into pan; trim edges. Freeze until very firm, about 1 hour. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover with plastic wrap and keep frozen.)
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line frozen crust with aluminum foil. Fill crust with dried beans or pie weights. Bake until crust is set on edges, about 12 minutes. Remove beans and foil from crust. Continue baking until crust is golden in center, about 14 minutes. Transfer crust to rack and cool completely. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature.)
  • For Filling:
  • Combine 1 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 cup whipping cream and 1/2 cup dry white wine in heavy medium saucepan. Whisk in 3 eggs, 2 large egg yolks and 1 tablespoon grated lime peel. Place 1 tablespoon cornstarch in small bowl. Gradually whisk in 3/4 cup fresh lime juice. Add to mixture in saucepan. Stir over medium-high until mixture comes to boil. Continue to boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Transfer mixture to medium bowl. Cool mixture completely. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Beat remaining egg into filling. Pour filling into crust. Bake until filling is set and begins to bubble around edge, about 40 minutes. Cool completely. Refrigerate until well chilled, about 6 hours. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover with plastic wrap and keep refrigerated.)
  • For Meringue:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine 1/4 cup water and vanilla bean in heavy small saucepan. Gently simmer until vanilla bean is tender, about 1 minute. Remove vanilla bean from water and split lengthwise. Scrape seeds from bean into water; return bean to water. Add 1/4 cup sugar to water and stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil until mixture is thick and syrupy, about 3 minutes. Remove vanilla bean from saucepan.
  • Meanwhile, using electric mixer, beat 3 large egg whites, in large bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat mixture until medium peaks form.
  • Gradually beat boiling syrup into egg whites. Continue beating until stiff peaks form. Using rubber spatula, transfer meringue to pastry bag fitted with large plain or star tip. Pipe meringue atop tart in diagonal lattice design, spacing lines of meringue about 2 inches apart. Bake until meringue is golden brown, about 7 minutes. Cool completely. (Can be prepared up to 4 hours ahead; refrigerate uncovered.)
  • For Berry Topping:
  • Combine 2 tablespoons crème de cassis, 2 tablespoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon grated lime peel in small saucepan. Boil mixture until sugar dissolves and mixture is syrupy, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Cool slightly. Place berries in bowl. Pour crème de cassis mixture over. Toss to coat berries.

CREAMY LIME PIE (RICK BAYLESS)



Creamy Lime Pie (Rick Bayless) image

Or Pay de Lim'on comes from Rick Bayless's Mexican Kitchen. Delicious and not too sweet. I use Recipe#291722 and sealed it with beaten egg yolk right after it comes out of my oven. The timing here does not include the time needed to make and bake the single crust before putting this filling into nor does it include making the creme fraiche or crema mexicana. I used Recipe#218458. Notice how this pie is baked and not stirred in sauce pan on top of the stove. The original recipe said 4 1/2 teaspoons of lime zest, we thought that was not enough so upped it to 5 teaspoons of lime zest. Am unsure if that is the right amount? It also has orange liqueur in it making it muy bueno! Rick Bayless also suggests serving it with Crimson Prickly Pear Sauce which RZ does not recognize as an ingredient or with a fruit sauce of your choice. Lots of ingredients here should be at room temperature-eggs, crema Mexicana, limes (about 4), and oranges (2?). I have eliminated the masa harina after looking at appleydapply's kind review.

Categories     Pie

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pie shell, baked in 9 inch glass pie dish
3 large eggs, at room temperature
5 teaspoons lime zest, finely chopped (colored rind only no pith)
2/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup creme fraiche, at room temperature
2 tablespoons creme fraiche, at room temperature
6 tablespoons fresh lime juice
6 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 1/2 tablespoons orange liqueur
1 tablespoon powdered sugar, for garnish
fruit sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Crack the eggs into a large bowl; measure in the lime zest, sugar, and masa harina or flour, and beat by hand until thoroughly combined.
  • Stir in 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons of the creme fraiche, lime juice, orange juice, and orange liqueur.
  • Pour this mixture into the prebaked pie shell, set in the lower third of the oven, and bake until nearly set in the center ( a knife inserted halfway between the edge and the center should come out clean), about 45 minutes. Note: mine took over 55 minutes before it was baked.
  • I suggest putting an aluminum foil rim covering just the crust up so that crust does not get too dark. I make 4 skinny foil strips and then just lay them over the crust trying not to cover the filling any more than necessary. My crust in photos are too dark b/c I waited 15 minutes before putting them on, and with the filling being so wiggly why not just move it one less time?.
  • Cool slightly; serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar and with fruit sauce dribbled around.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh limes and key limes when they are in season. You can also use bottled lime juice, but fresh lime juice will give your pie a more intense flavor.
  • If you don't have any graham cracker crumbs, you can make your own by crushing graham crackers in a food processor or blender.
  • To make sure your pie crust is evenly cooked, pre-bake it for 10-12 minutes before filling it.
  • When making the filling, be sure to whisk the eggs and sugar together until they are light and fluffy. This will help to prevent the filling from curdling.
  • To prevent the meringue from weeping, make sure to beat the egg whites until they are stiff peaks.
  • If you're short on time, you can use store-bought whipped cream instead of making your own.

Conclusion:

Creamy lime pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy, tart, and sweet filling, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to make, give this creamy lime pie recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
