GRAPEFRUIT MERINGUE PIE
There's a grapefruit tree in our backyard, so I like to use fresh grapefruit juice when I make this pie. I just love the unique citrus flavor of this dessert. -Barbara Soliday, Winter Haven, Florida

Steps:
- Preheat broiler, with rack in lowest position. Put the egg whites and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and beat on medium speed until frothy, about 30 seconds. Raise speed to high, and add sugar 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until incorporated. Continue to beat until the egg whites hold stiff (but not dry) peaks, about 3 minutes.
- Place grapefruit halves, cut sides down, on a large plate; let drain 2 minutes. Invert, and carefully cut between membranes to loosen segments completely. Spoon one-quarter of meringue onto each half, using the spoon to create swirls and peaks. Transfer to a baking pan. Broil, checking frequently, until meringues are browned, about 30 seconds. Serve immediately.Note: The eggs in this dish will not be fully cooked, so it should not be prepared for pregnant women, babies, young children, the elderly, or anyone whose health is compromised.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- To make the pie crust: In a resealable plastic bag, crush the graham crackers. Transfer the crushed graham crackers into a big bowl and mix in the grated dark chocolate shavings, brown sugar, and melted butter. Line 6 (4-inch) mini pie molds with the crust mixture, making crust about 1/8-inch thick. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, then cool.
- To make the filling: In a bowl, combine egg yolks, fresh pink grapefruit juice, fresh lemon juice, pink grapefruit zest, and lemon zest. Mix and set aside. In a heavy saucepan add: brown sugar, cornstarch, a pinch of sea salt, and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat whisking constantly for 2 to 3 minutes, until the mixture thickens. Slowly whisk in a small portion of this mixture to the egg yolks-citrus mixture. Cook's Note: Be careful not to cook the yolks.
- Whisk the egg yolk-citrus mixture back into the pot, reduce the heat to low, add 2 tablespoons unsalted butter and whisk for 8 more minutes, until very thick. Cover and refrigerate the mixture for 3 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- To make the meringue: In clean bowl, combine the 4 egg whites, white sugar, and white vinegar. Using electric mixer or whisk, whip until stiff peaks form.
- Evenly divide and spoon the chilled citrus filling into the graham cracker crusts and top with lots of meringue. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the meringues brown slightly.
GRAPEFRUIT AND PEPPER MERINGUE TARTLETS
I like to add some freshly ground black pepper to my meringue. It may sound odd, but the little spicy kick works really well with the acidity of the grapefruit curd.

Steps:
- For the grapefruit curd: Measure 6 tablespoons/90 milliliters of grapefruit juice into a pan and whisk together with the zest, sugar, salt and eggs over a gentle heat. Sift in the cornflour and continue to whisk. Don't stop whisking at any point, otherwise the eggs will curdle.
- Once the curd is as thick as pureed tomatoes and has released a bubble or two, take it off the heat and whisk in the butter a cube at a time. Pour into a bowl and cover with cling film, placing it in direct contact with the curd to prevent a skin forming. Refrigerate for at least an hour (best overnight).
- For the biscuit base: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F/180 degrees C/Gas 4 and butter six 3- by 2-inch/8- by 5-centimeter metal dessert rings.
- Cream together the butter and sugar with the salt and lemon zest until fluffy and pale in colour. Add the egg yolks and continue to beat. Sift the flour and baking powder together, add to the creamed mixture and continue beating until the dough comes together as a smooth paste.
- Put the dough into a piping bag fitted with a 1/3-inch/1-centimeter round nozzle. Pipe the dough into the rings in a spiral working from the outside towards the centre until the base is completely covered by a 1/8-inch/3- to 4-millimeter layer, and then pipe a ring round the edge to create a little dip for the curd to sit in. Bake until golden (but not too dark), 12 to 15 minutes.
- Remove the biscuit base from the oven and leave to cool for a couple of minutes before running a small sharp knife around the inside of each ring to release the biscuit. Transfer the biscuits to a wire rack (be careful as they're fragile) and leave to cool.
- For the Italian meringue: Put the sugar into a pan with 1 fluid ounce/40 milliliters water and place on a high heat. Bring to the soft-ball stage (245 degrees F/118 degrees C on a sugar thermometer) which will take about 10 minutes. To test without a thermometer, drop a tiny bit of sugar syrup into a bowl of very cold water. When it forms a soft sticky ball, it is ready.
- While waiting for the sugar syrup, start whisking the egg whites with the salt in a clean glass or metal bowl. Whisk until a light froth forms, stopping before any soft peaks can be formed. Once the sugar syrup has reached the soft-ball stage, beat the egg whites at the same time as pouring the syrup onto them in a thin stream. (Don't pour the syrup over the whisk, but down the side of the bowl.) Add the pepper and continue to whisk for 10 minutes or until the egg whites are glossy and stiff.
- To assemble, place a generous tablespoon of the grapefruit curd on top of the biscuits, followed by the meringue. Either place under a very hot grill for a couple of minutes or use a blowtorch to brown.
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.
