    Lemon Chess Pie With Blackberry Sauce


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    4 eggs
    1 cup sugar
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 cup buttermilk
    2 tablespoons cornmeal
    1/2 cup melted butter
    Zest of a lemon (about 2 teaspoons)
    1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
    Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
    Partially baked 9-inch pie pastry shell (recipe follows)
    Blackberry sauce (recipe follows)
    Blackberries
    Pastry stars
    Whipped Cream
    Confectioners' sugar
    Mint

    Recipe



    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

    Beat the eggs lightly. Beat in the sugar, salt, buttermilk, cornmeal and melted butter and mix until smooth. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice and nutmeg.

    Pour into the warm, partially baked pie shell and bake until the custard is just set, about 30 to 35 minutes. The center will still be jiggly. The pie will continue to cook after it has been removed from the oven.

    Cool to room temperature before serving.

    Present the pie with sauce and berries on one side, whipped cream stuck with pastry stars on the other, a shower of confectioners' sugar and mint sprig.
