Preheat oven to 325'F. Grease 9" springform pan; dust with matzoh
meal. Prepare Torte: Whisk yolks and sugar in large bowl to blend.
Stir in pecans and lemon rind. Beat egg whites and lemon juice in
large bowl until stiff but not dry peaks form. Stir 1/4 of whites into
yolk mixture. Fold in remaining whites until blended. Scrape into
prepared pan. Bake in 325'F oven for 1 hour or until firm in center to
