degrees. For the filling, in a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup sugar and
the cornstarch. Stir in the grape juice and water. Cook and stir over

stir for 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Stir in the lemon peel
and lemon juice. Reserve 1/3 cup hot mixture for the meringue; set
aside to cool. Separate the eggs; set the whites aside for the meringue.
Beat the egg yolks slightly. Gradually stir 1 cup of the remaining hot
mixture into the yolks; return to the saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil.
Cook and stir for 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat; pour into the
pie crust. For the meringue, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
Beat in the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and the reserved filling.
Beat until stiff peaks form. carefully spread the meringue over the hot
filling in the pie crust; seal to the edge. Bake for 15 minutes, or
until the meringue is golden. Cool on a wire rack. Cover and store in
the refrigerator. Penny Halsey (ATBN65B).
