Ingredients:
2 lemons
1 3/4 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Blanch the lemons for 30 seconds then drain and rinse with cold water.
2. Trim the ends of the lemons, toss them, cut the lemons crosswise into paper-thin slices. In a bowl cover the lemon slices with the sugar and let the mixture stand, stirring once after 1 hour, for 8 hours or overnight.
3. Preheat the oven to 425°F Remove the lemon slices from the sugar and arrange them in the shell. Add the eggs and salt to the sugar, whisk the mixture until it is combined well, and pour it over the lemon slices.
4. Cut slits in the crust with a sharp knife, forming steam vents, and bake the pie in the middle of the oven for 25 minutes.
5. Reduce the temperature to 350°F and bake the pie for 20 to 25 minutes more, or until the crust is golden. Let the pie cool on a rack and serve it warm at room temperature.
6. You might want to do a search engine search for the other pie if you bookmarked it.
