For the best meringue, ensure your mixing bowl and whisk are completely clean and free of any grease. Room temperature egg whites whip up to a greater volume than cold egg whites. If the meringue starts to brown too quickly in the oven, lower the oven temperature slightly or tent the pie loosely with foil. Bottled lemon juice provides consistent acidity, but fresh lemon juice will add a brighter, zestier flavor if preferred.
