Chef's Notes
Pay absolute attention to your citrus balances. Freshly squeezed juice is the hidden crown jewel of this pie.
Pro Tip
Seal your meringue tightly against the crust edges to prevent it from shrinking or weeping away as it bakes.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If your meringue shrinks and weeps pools of water, you either applied it to a cold filling or baked it at the wrong temperature, resulting in a soggy, weeping disaster.

Pastry & Confectionery Stabilization
Storage Science
Cakes and soft desserts should be wrapped tightly to prevent moisture loss and stored at room temperature (if no perishable fillings) or refrigerated. Consume within 3 days.
Reheating Science
Serve at room temperature for optimal flavor perception, as cold mutes sweetness. If it's a baked pastry, flash-heat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 3-5 minutes to restore the butter matrix and crispness.
