WEEK 4: LEMON MERINGUE PIE

Lemon Meringue Pie

In week 4 we made lemon meringue pie it was a very complex and tasty dish. Overall i think that the dish turned out to be a success. Some things i did good while cooking the pie was the piping,it was very neat on top on the lemon curd and it looked very good, also the lemon curd turned out good and i kept on top of it to make sure it didn't burn or over cooked. The next time i cook the Lemon meringue pie i will use a home-made shortbread crust base because it wasn't very thick and just tasted like normal puff pastry, i will also pipe bigger amounts of meringue on in so that the pie isn't so sour and there is the sweet taste as well as the sour so it tastes good when all together.
When i tasted the pie the shortbread was very thing and dry, the lemon curd was sour and a bright yellow, kind of like a gooey texture on your mouth, the meringue was sweet and sticky it tasted very sweet. Overall the Pie was a success and it looked and tasted very good!
