Como fazer Tucker Hospital Lemon Chess Pie

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