Comment préparer Tucker Hospital Lemon Chess Pie

Prepare your pie crust (recipe #182002).
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and ½ teaspoon salt.
In a liquid measuring cup, combine ⅓ cup vegetable shortening and ¾ cup cold milk. Whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a fork until a shaggy dough forms.
Reserve half of the dough for later use. Wrap and refrigerate.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the remaining dough between two sheets of parchment paper into a 12-inch circle.
Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges, then prick the bottom with a fork.
**Prepare the filling:** In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup all-purpose flour, and ¼ cup cornmeal.
Add 4 large eggs, ¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter, melted, 1 cup milk, the zest of 1 lemon, and ½ cup fresh lemon juice.
Whisk until completely smooth and well blended.
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and golden brown.
Let cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or chilled!
