Recipe for Pineapple Pie
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 cups water
- 1/2 cup corn starch
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
- 2 Tb. lemon juice
- 1 cup shredded or finely chopped pineapple
Directions
Put the water in a pot and bring it to the boiling point. Mix the corn starch, sugar, and salt and add to the boiling water. Cook directly over the flame until the mixture has thickened. Separate the egg, beat the yolk, and add to the pineapple and lemon juice. Stir this into the corn-starch mixture, remove from the heat, and add the pineapple. Fill a baked crust of a pie, make meringue of the egg white, cover the filling, and bake in a moderate oven until delicately browned.
