  3. Beat egg yolks until thick and lemon colored; gradually beat in 1/2 cup of sugar
  4. Add lemon juice and rind
  5. Beat egg whites with salt until frothy; gradually beat in the remaining sugar
  6. Continue beating whites until they will hold a peak when mixer is lifted.
  7. Fold whites carefully into egg mixture
  8. Pour into prepared dish, place dish in a pan of hot water and bake for 40 minutes
  9. Remove from oven, dust with confectioner's sugar and serve immediately
