This recipe is the one we have been using in my family for 4 generations. It is a great basic recipe. It comes from Marjorie Standish's Cooking Down East. It does not use evaporated milk, or condensed milk, which is a good thing for me, because I never seem to have any of either on hand. I have also made this using other types of cooked squash (butternut, acorn, etc. If you use a 9-inch glass pie plate, you will have a little extra filling-just cook it in a ramekin along with the pie.
Ingredients:
3 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups milk
