From Libby's old newspaper clipping. I have made this but not with the meringue. I just mixed the whole egg together and added some nutmeg and 1 cup sugar. This is a really good recipe.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups rhubarb
1 pie shell, unbaked
1 3/8 cups milk
2 tablespoons butter
3 large eggs, separated
1 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons honey
Directions:
1. Spread thinly sliced rhubarb in bottom of unbaked pie shell.
2. Heat milk; add butter.
3. Beat egg yolks; add sugar, flour, salt.
4. Gradually pour hot milk mixture into egg mixture.
5. Pour this custard mixture over the rhubarb; sprinkle nutmeg over pie.
6. Bake at 425F for 10 minutes; reduce heat to 325°F and bake for 30 minutes.
7. Remove from oven.
8. Beat egg whites and honey together until stiff. Spread meringue over top of pie.
9. Bake at 300°F for 20 minutes.
