The Meyer lemons are coming in and they are very juicy this year. I love to use them to make a Meyer lemon key and how to bang them lime style pie. by Chef Shafer If you don’t know what a key lime pie is then you’ve got to go to the Florida Keys and try one. When I was a kid I would go down to the keys and dive into the pie that is made out of the limes that grow in the region. It’s pretty easy to make. It just takes time to squeeze the lemon juice. You know what they say “if life gives you lemons... make lemon pie!” The Chef Meyer Lemon Pie
