JOE'S STONE CRAB KEY LIME PIE



Joe's Stone Crab Key Lime Pie image

I made this for my grandparent's 61st wedding anniversary recently. They lived in Florida in their youth, and loved Joe's Stone, and have lamented on occasion that they will never be able to go back (they now live in Virginia). The family rallied 'round and ordered the crab claws directly from Joe's, got a Joe's Stone Crab Cookbook, and prepared the rest of the meal directly from it. What a fantastic surprise it was... and this was a very sweet end to the night. NOTE: I was only able to find about 8 key limes, which wasn't enough juice. I supplemented with Nellie & Joe's Key Lime juice without a problem. Also, I thought the pie was so rich it didn't even need any whipped cream.

THE BEST KEY LIME PIE



The Best Key Lime Pie image

A Floridian classic, this bright, creamy and tart dessert is so simple to make it will become a regular at your summer get togethers. Key lime juice is the star of this pie, adding a slightly more floral note than regular limes. But not to worry if you can't find fresh Key limes or the bottled juice - you can use standard limes with equally delicious results.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (see Cook's Note)
1/4 cup brown sugar
Pinch of kosher salt
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
2 cups sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup Key lime juice, preferably fresh-squeezed
2 large egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons lime zest, plus more for garnish
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the crust: Stir together the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and salt with a fork in a medium bowl. Pour in the butter and continue to stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Transfer the crumb mixture to a 9-inch glass or metal pie dish and spread into an even layer. Use a 1/4 measuring cup or small glass to firmly press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Bake until it is dry-looking and lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack while you make the filling.
  • For the filling: Combine the sweetened condensed milk and sour cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until combined, about 1 minute. Add the lime juice, egg yolks, salt and lime zest and continue to beat until the batter is smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour into the graham cracker crust. Bake until the pie is mostly set but jiggles slightly in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. Let the pie cool to room temperature on a wire rack, then refrigerate to set and chill completely, at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
  • For the whipped cream topping: Combine the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until stiff peaks form. Transfer the whipped cream to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe the topping decoratively on top of the pie. Alternatively, dolloped the whipped cream on slices of pie. Sprinkle with lime zest.

THE BEST KEY LIME PIE EVER (ADAPTED FROM JOE’S STONE CRAB)



THE BEST KEY LIME PIE EVER (ADAPTED FROM JOE’S STONE CRAB) image

Categories     Fruit

Number Of Ingredients 13

Crust:
1/3 lb graham cracker crusts (or 1/3 of a 1lb box of graham crackers)
5 tbsp melted butter
1/3 cup sugar
Filling:
3 egg yolks
2 tsp grated lime zest
1 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk
2/3 cups of fresh lime juice
Vanilla Whipped Cream Topping:
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and then grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish with butter. Set aside. Now you're ready to begin prepping your pie crust. Using a food processor, pulse the graham crackers into fine crumbs. Next add in the butter and sugar and pulse again until the ingredients combine. (If you don't have a food processor you can place the graham crackers in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin and then combine the remaining ingredients by hand.) Take the crust mixture and firmly press down onto the bottom and sides of your pie dish. (Tip: Use the bottom of your measuring cup like I did to help you press the mixture down smoothly and evenly). Bake in the oven for approximately 8 minutes or until just golden and set. Set aside on a wire rack and be sure to leave the oven on. Next combine the egg yolk and lemon zest and beat on high speed using the wire whisk attachment on your electric mixer until the mixture is fluffy, approximately 5 minutes. Gradually add in the condensed milk and continue to beat for another 3-4 minutes until the mixture is thick. Lower the speed and gradually add in the lime juice until just combined. Next pour the mixture into the crust and bake for about 10 minutes until the filling sets. Cool on a wire rack and then refrigerate until the pie is completely cold, then set in the freezer for about 5-10 minutes before you're ready to serve the pie. While the pie is freezing, combine all of the ingredients for the topping and whip together until the cream is stiff. Spread the whipped cream evenly across the entire pie. Feel free to garnish with sliced lime if you wish then cut into wedges and serve. Be prepared to be blown away by the deliciousness of this pie It's that good.
