until foamy. Add cream of tartar and beat just until stiff. Add sugar, 1

Prepare filling while meringue is baking. Combine 1/4 cup of the
raspberries and 1/4 cup of the sugar with the cornstarch, salt, water, and
lemon juice in a food processor. Mix until smooth. Scrape the mixture into
a heavy saucepan and cook until thick, stirring constantly. Remove from
