FROSTY LIME PIE



Frosty Lime Pie image

This frozen dessert delivers cold, tart relief on a hot summer day. Pearl Byrd Foster served this pie on her menu at Mr. and Mrs. Foster's Place, her 15-table restaurant on the Upper East Side. Ms. Foster opened the restaurant after a 30-year career in hotel, department store and food magazine kitchens. Raymond Sokolov, a former food editor of The New York Times, wrote about this recipe in 1971. The real secret to making this pie, he said, is in how you handle the egg yolks. Heat them too much and they scramble, or too little and they won't thicken. When the yolks get too hot for your finger, around 165 degrees, they're hot enough.

Time 1h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup superfine sugar
Pinch of salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
5 eggs, separated
3/4 cup superfine sugar, divided
2/3 cup fresh squeezed, strained lime juice
2 teaspoons grated lime zest
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups heavy cream, whipped
Thin slices of lime or fresh strawberries
Sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Make the crust: Place the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add the butter and work with a wooden spoon (or your fingers) to blend well. Press the mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie plate with your fingertips, or use an 8-inch pie plate to press down the mixture. Transfer to oven and bake 10 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
  • Make the filling: Beat the yolks in the bowl of a stand mixer until very thick. Gradually beat in half the sugar until mixture is very pale and thick and forms a rope when dropped from the beater.
  • Stir in the lime juice and zest and transfer to a double boiler. Heat over over simmering water, stirring until mixture coats the back of a spoon. Do not allow to boil. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool to room temperature.
  • Once the yolk mixture reaches room temperature, beat the egg whites with the salt in a separate bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the remaining sugar until mixture is stiff and shiny. Stir a third of this meringue mixture into the cooled yolk mixture. Fold in remaining meringue mixture until evenly distributed.
  • Turn the mixture out into the cooled graham cracker pie shell and bake 15 minutes, or until lightly tinged with brown. Let cool.
  • Transfer the pie to the refrigerator and let chill thoroughly, uncovered, then transfer to the freezer. Freeze at least 8 hours or overnight. Once it is frozen, cover with plastic wrap and keep frozen until just before serving.
  • Remove from the freezer 10 minutes before serving. Cover with the whipped cream and garnish with lime slices dipped in sugar or fresh strawberries.

FANTASTIC FROZEN LIME PIE DESSERT



Fantastic Frozen Lime Pie Dessert image

A co-worker shared his mother's recipe. The sky is the limit because all the employees made this recipe using different flavored concentrates. I also made this recipe, using orange concentrate and grated orange zest on top, it was also fantastic. Although, you will need to freeze this overnight, it is the fastest dessert you will ever make. It makes two pies and you will be glad you have two because the first one will be gone in no time.

Time 15m

Yield 2 pies, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (12 ounce) can frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (can use fat-free)
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream (can use light)
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed (can use light)
2 prepared pie crusts (graham, shortbread, chocolate or whatever you desire)
grated lime zest, for the top (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine thawed limeade and sweetened condensed milk.
  • Add sour cream and whipped topping. Stir until smooth.
  • Pour half the mixture into each pie crust.
  • Top with grated lime zest, if desired.
  • Place in freezer and freeze pies overnight.

Tips:

  • Use key limes for a more intense flavor. Key limes are smaller and have a stronger, more acidic flavor than regular limes. If you can't find key limes, you can use regular limes, but you may need to add more zest or juice to achieve the desired flavor.
  • Make sure the lime juice is fresh. Fresh lime juice will give the pie a brighter, more vibrant flavor. If you don't have fresh lime juice, you can use bottled lime juice, but it may not taste as good.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will make the pie filling too stiff. Beat the egg whites until they are stiff peaks, but not dry.
  • Bake the pie in a water bath. Baking the pie in a water bath helps to prevent the crust from cracking and the filling from curdling.
  • Chill the pie before serving. The pie needs to be chilled for at least 4 hours before serving, so that the filling has time to set.

Conclusion:

Frozen lime pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made ahead of time. With its creamy filling, tangy lime flavor, and graham cracker crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give frozen lime pie a try.
