Dear Miss Hathaway: I am sending one of my favorite recipes on how to make lemon pie. I hope you will like it. I like the recipes I get from your column very much. Mix five tablespoons of flour, one cup of sugar and add three cups of boiling water. Stir constantly over a slow fire. After four minutes stir in one-half tablespoon of butter. Remove from the fire, add two unbeaten egg yolks and stir well. Add the grated rind and strained juice of one lemon, also a little salt. Beat the two egg whites until stiff, fold carefully into the hot mixture and turn into a pastry shell. The stiffly beaten egg whites are folded into the pie instead of used on top in the form meringue. The pie is delicious.
