A properly constructed key lime pie gets its beautiful pale greenishness
from carefully stripped and slivered lime zest. If the egg yolks are
given enough rest time with the lime juice, they don't ooze.

We have friends in San Diego whose lemon tree produces lovely half-tart
lemons with incredibly aromatic peels. Mostly, I make delicious pale
yellow lemon pie.
