Como fazer Traditional Key Lime Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks until light and frothy.
- Gradually whisk in 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk until smooth.
- Add 1 cup fresh key lime juice and the zest of 2 key limes. Whisk until well combined.
- In a separate small bowl, beat 1 large egg white with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the beaten egg white into the key lime mixture until just combined.
- Pour the mixture into a 9-inch baked pie shell.
- In a clean, dry bowl, beat the remaining 3 large egg whites with 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Spread the meringue evenly over the key lime filling, sealing the edges to the crust.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the meringue is golden brown and lightly toasted.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set completely.
