YANKEE GRAPEFRUIT MERINGUE PIE
I'm intrigued by this recipe, which I have not tried yet. I've never heard of grapefruit meringue pie before but I love grapefruit, so I hope it will be good. I'm guessing as to number of grapefruit segments it will take to trim the pie; it may take more than 1 grapefruit.

- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In the top of a double boiler, mix together the cornstarch, sugar and salt; add 1¾ cup boiling water, stirring to blend.

- Beat yolks slightly; pour the cornstarch/sugar mixture into the yolks slowly, stirring constantly.
- Return double boiler to the stove and cook 2 minutes longer.
- Remove from stove and add butter, juice and peel, stirring until well blended; let cool, then pour into pie shell.
- Arrange grapefruit segments, thick side out, around the edge of the pie on top of the filling.
- To make the meringue, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, adding 6 Tbs of sugar gradually as you beat.
- Pile the meringue on top of the filling, inside the circle of grapefruit segments.
- Place in the oven 7-8 minutes until the meringue turns golden-brown.
