We set off to create a great key lime pie with a soft yet set filling that straddled the fine line between sweet and tart. We started with what many think of as the go-to recipe for key lime pie filling: the one on the back of the bottle of Nellie & Joe's Famous Key West Lime Juice.

When I was a young teen we had a big key lime tree outside my bedroom window. All these decades later can still smell the sweet, intoxicating aroma of those pretty little white and pink blossoms, they perfumed my room for weeks every spring. All these decades later I also remember what a pain in the neck it was to juice dozens of those wee key limes to get enough liquid for a pie. Honestly, regular limes are perfectly fine for pies!

The cocktail community has developed a fresh juice replacement usually referred as super juice. Using the zest and some math and powdered acids, a single piece of citrus fruit can yield 6-8 times the amount of liquid as simply juicing. Being that this might be helpful with citrus like Key Limes that are small, or perhaps cost prohibitive, I'd love to see some testing to see if super juice works as well in cooking as it does in the cocktail industry.

@slyfox7429 4 месяца назад

Sorry Bill Nye the science guy .... One must use REAL key limes and not that much meringue on the top or you lose the tang of the lime. Plus it makes a difference how ripe the key limes are. If they are green they are just ripe, and if they are green/ yellow tint they are mostly ripe and if all yellow they are fully ripe which gives a soft lime flavor with less bite or tang. Brazil limes are like using Rose's lime juice in a cocktail. Both are terrible.

I have been wanting to make a key lime pie for my hubby who loves them, but a little hesitant since, though I’m all of 75 yrs. “Young!”, I have never made a pie! Someone told me years ago that a genuine key lime pie HAD to be made with a chocolate cookie/wafer crust. But I’ve looked online and even left questions for others regarding this, and I find no mention of chocolate cookie crust for key lime pie. I’m beginning to think she meant a grasshopper pie, which is green, but from mint, not limes. Besides, I love the idea of adding the pretzels for structure and crunch! While I love merengue pie tops, my hubby may not, so I may opt for whipped cream. I understand if you use powdered sugar in whipped cream, it works to help the whipped cream retain some structure, so I’ll give that a try. BTW: I found bottled key lime juice from Florida in WalMart for under $3 a bottle. Thank you, Kristi and Bridget for this lovely recipe. Can’t wait to surprise my hubby with it!

@jayski9410 4 месяца назад

Why doesn't someone make a "crumb crust mold"? I mean you can get every other kitchen gadget but when it comes to making a crumb crust the only tool we have is the bottom of measuring cup? We ought to be able to just dump our prepared crumbs into a pie pan, press another one on top, and you're done. This doesn't work though because there isn't enough space between two equal sized pie pans. We need some one to make an upper pan that leaves about a 1/4 inch cavity between the pans (bottom & sides). I know there are artisans who make wooden molds for this purpose but they cost hundreds of dollars but just two interlocking metal pans shouldn't cost much more than two pie pans by themselves.

That's a great looking "Lime" pie, but it's NOT a "Key Lime" pie unless it's Key limes. Sorry, just how it is. I usually make my crust out of ginger snaps!

I usually have a bag of ginger snaps around because I make sauerbraten in the winter and using the rest of the ginger snaps for a pie crust, especially for key lime pie, is so awesome! I usually use whipped cream as a topping, or stabilized whipped cream with the addition of gelatin. No matter what though, it's got to have KEY LIME juice. No Persian limes or it's just NOT a Key Lime Pie.

I guess I now can serve tilapia and call it “salmon”? Key lime are key limes (even if bottled); limes are limes. Perfectly fine, just not key limes.

I used to make a key lime pie from a mix. It was a mix that started as lime bars. (Think lemon bars but made with limes.) The lime bar mixture was mixed for 2 minutes with heavy whipping cream. It was extremely sweet, so I would crush 4-1000 mg vitamin C tablets for strong tartness. I would pour all of the mixture into a supersized graham cracker crust. Refrigerate for 2 hours. Then enjoy!!! They no longer make the lime bar mix, at least I can't find it. How ever Marie Calendars makes a good substitute.

The currently known version of key lime pie was indeed from B*rden, along with things like their magic cookie & so on.* What I remember from my childhood as Key Lime Pie, was structurally like lemon meringue, but making & using Key Lime curd instead of lemon curd. With that under the meringue, the whole thing becomes a very good match and wonderfully light and refreshing on an excruciatingly hot day. The condensed milk version, while easier to make, is quite a bit heavier, so the whipped cream stands up to it & cuts through the heavy tart sweetness of it. I have occasionally made the old fashioned one. The meringue in your photo would be perfect on the Key Lime curd base. * I find it hard to believe that a 19th century cook would've spent the money on a lot of sugar, a lot of milk, and time to create sweetened condensed milk just for a pie.

I'm assuming the hot syrup "cooks" the egg whites?

@pwp8737 4 месяца назад

exactly, apart from giving them the characteristic sheen, the whites are cooked and safe for consumption.

I was on board until you chose to use regular limes. It ain't key lime pie. I'm sure it's still delicious but it's a different flavor. And now I see you adding meringue. Just no.

If you don’t use Key Limes or Key Lime juice, it’s not Key Lime pie! Key Limes have their own unique taste that can’t be duplicated by using regular limes, and it will NOT taste like the key lime pie you get in the Florida Keys!

Absolutely must use Key Limes!!! Fail!!!

Agreed. The “astringency” she speaks of is what makes key lime pie, key lime pie and not just lime pie. That’s what most key lime pie enthusiasts look for…at least make a compromise and go half and half.

@babyyodaking123 4 месяца назад

I love ya but no meringue, that’s for lemon pie. And no key lime juice? Cmon ATK. It shouldn’t have pretzels either. Dropped the ball on this one

@meganfaust3928 4 месяца назад

If you don’t use Key lime juice, then it’s just lime pie, which is fine. Just don’t call it “Key lime pie.” 💁🏼

What is with that long, sitting in the livingroom intro? 🤨 Completely unnecessary to DESCRIBE the cooking video that everyone is tuning in to see, and it's unnecessary to fudge around with an already successful and beloved format. It's giving me "corporate bozo attempting to justify their position" vibes.
