Tips: The rind is good, but not totally necessary. You can leave it out if you just want to use bottled lemon juice. The two lemons will equal about 1/4 cup of juice.

I add the milk last after already beating the mixture to avoid curdling.


What a great recipe! I've always wanted to try making a chess pie! Thanks to you, I will try this!


What is corn meal?
thank you!


I like zest it gives the dish that extra zip I look for.
Great post
