Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 F. In a deep-dish 10-inch pie pan, fit the crust to the pan, prick the bottom several times with a fork, then cover with aluminum foil and add pie weights or dried beans. Bake at 425 for 12 - 15 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool. Reduce oven heat to 300 F.
• Meanwhile, put the berries, sugar, lemon zest, and water in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and cornstarch, then slowly pour the lemon juice/cornstarch mixture into the berries in the pan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thickened.
• Separate the eggs, setting aside the whites for the meringue and whisking the yolks in a small mixing bowl. While whisking, slowly stir a few Tablespoons of the hot blueberry mixture into the yolks, then repeat three times. Then, while stirring, slowly pour the egg mixture back into the pot on the stove. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for two minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in the butter.
• Let cool slightly, then pour this thick mixture into a blender or food processor and process until smooth. Pour the mixture into the prepared crust.
• Now for the meringue! In a medium mixing bowl, beat the egg whites on high speed with cream of tartar and vanilla until soft peaks form. Continue to beat while you slowly add the sugar, beating until peaks are completely stiff and the mixture is glossy.
• Pour the meringue over the pie and use a spatula to make decorative peaks. Bake at 300 F. for about 30 - 35 minutes or until the meringue is nicely browned. Cool at room temperature for 1 hour, then chill for at least 5 hours before slicing. Store in the refrigerator.

BLUEBERRY-LEMON PIE WITH A BUTTER CRUST

Steps:

• For the flaky butter pie crust: Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and cut it in with a pastry blender until the largest pieces are the size of small peas and the mixture begins to clump on the pastry blender. Shuffle through the mixture with your hands, pinching chunks of fat to flatten them.
• Stir the vinegar and 5 tablespoons ice water together in a bowl. Add the liquid to the flour mixture and stir with a fork. Pinch a clump of dough in your hands: If it feels moist and clumps together easily, it's probably hydrated enough. If it feels really crumbly, add another tablespoon or two of ice water until you can form a baseball-size clump of dough, packing it on as if you were making a snowball.
• Divide the dough in half and form each half into a flat disk. Wrap both disks in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.
• Thirty minutes before you're ready to roll out the dough, remove it from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature to soften. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the blueberry filling: In a bowl, toss the blueberries with the sugar, cornstarch and lemon zest and juice and mix until combined.
• Dust a worktop and rolling pin with flour. Roll out one dough disk a little less than 1¿4 inch thick, about 14 inches in diameter. Fold the dough in half and transfer it to a 9- or 10-inch pie plate. Unfold. Press the dough into the corners, leaving the overhang for now. Refrigerate the first crust while you roll out the second disk of dough.
• Remove the bottom crust from the refrigerator and fill it with the berry mixture. Tuck the pats of cold butter beneath the top layer of berries. Top with the second piece of dough, and trim both to a 1/2-inch overhang around the pie. Tuck the overhang into a roll and crimp the edge, pressing down to hook some of the dough over the edge of the dish, holding the pie. Cut a hole in the center of the pie, as well as some decorative vents.
• Brush the top of the pie with cream and dust it with sugar. Bake for 20 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F and bake for another 20 minutes. Cover the edges of the pie with foil and continue to bake until the center juices bubble and thicken, 25 to 35 minutes more.
• Let the pie cool until it is just warm to the touch before slicing and serving. Top with ice cream.
