whipping solves these problems and makes a silky smooth meringue that
slices beautiflilly. (Not even one drop of moisture beaded up on the
meringue when we tested the recipe during a major rainstorm.)
This pie is best the day it is made. It may be stored uncovered at room
temperature overnight, but some liquid will form under the crust the next
day.
Caution: This recipe must be made in a 10-inch pie plate. It makes too much
filling to work in a 9-inch pie plate.
Source: This is book based on bakery goods made at Gayle's Bakery -- opened
in 1978 -- in Capitola California (seaside town 90 miles south of San
Francisco). The book is called The Village Baker's Wife, by Gayle and Joe
Ortiz with Louisa Beers (1979, Ten Speed Press, ISBN 0-89815-869-9). The
authors write: "This book is an entire pastry shop between two covers."
Prior to this, Joe wrote a book: The Village Baker.
