George Eastman, the  inventor of photographic film and founder of the Eastman Kodak company, liked to bake.  His favorite dessert was Lemon Pie.  He always ate at least two big slices.  I obtained his recipe from the George Eastman House in Rochester, New York.

 

George Eastman’s Lemon Pie recipe

6 eggs

2 lemons

1 cup sugar

Beat the yolks of six eggs with one cup of granulated sugar.  Add grated rind and juice of two lemons.  Cook fifteen minutes in double boiler, stirring constantly.  Take from fire, and when cool, add the beaten whites of three eggs.  Fill a pie crust that has been baked a light brown.  Make meringue with the three remaining egg whites, top off, and put in oven to brown.
