Cookie 64, Do you cook the egg yokes with the rest ????????

Nothing is cooked??

Thanks!!

I do it the same way you do. This was my mother in-law's way of doing it. She got it off of the condense milk can. This was my husband's favorite pie and became my 2 son's favorite. My son's make it for their kids.

Cookie

You did not mention whether the filling was cooked or not and at what temperature. It is cooked because of the egg yolk in it, right? Please clarify.

Bobby 1 answered this with my same question
Nothing is cooked.................

Sounds tasty, but wouldn't make this because of the uncooked yolk. Just my take . . . .

Just a thought....maybe lemon juice because of acidity might do something to yolks to make them safe to eat? Does this make sense? I am not a scientist and admittely confess that I have trouble verbalizing sometimes what I am thinking. GETTING OLD IS NOT FOR THE WEAK!! :-D

I think I am going to try stove top cook the filling then put it in the baked crust.

I may try stove top cooking the filling then put it in the baked crust.

Bobby, you don't have to cook it, the lemon juice takes care of that and also when you brown the icing it cooks long enough. I have made this for 48 years and never got sick on them.

Cookie

Thank you Cookie....you explained exactly what I couldn't. Sometimes my mouth and brain just don't work together!!.

:-D :-D

Sounds good

Ok, sounds good to me. I'll give it a whirl. Thanks.

I have the same recipe, was my grandmother's recipe and I've never gotten sick either nor has any of my other relatives or friends. I guess people don't eat sunny side up eggs either? (I do and have loved them since I was a toddler, back in the 40's. They were even straight from the hen house!) Amazing!

I am sure folks would shutter if they could have seen my granddaddy egg a 3 min egg!! LOL!!

Thank you, I am always looking for a good lemon recipe :D:D:D
