  • 1 3 ounce package lemon-flavored gelatin
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons finely shredded lemon peel
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 2 cups Rosy Rhubarb Sauce (see recipe below)
  • 1 recipe Baked Pastry Shell (see recipe below)

Directions

2. In a medium bowl, beat cream until soft peaks form (tips curl). Fold whipped cream and Rosy Rhubarb Sauce into lemon mixture. Chill until mixture mounds. Pile into Baked Pastry Shell. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 8 hours or until firm. Makes 10 to 12 servings.

Baked Pastry Shell
 

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup shortening
  • 4 - 5 tablespoons cold water

Directions

Stir together flour and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in shortening until pieces are pea-size. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the water over part of the mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push moistened dough to the side of the bowl. Repeat moistening dough, using 1 tablespoon of the water at a time, until all the dough is moistened. Form dough into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, use your hands to slightly flatten dough. Roll dough from center to edge into a circle about 12 inches in diameter. To transfer pastry, wrap it around the rolling pin. Unroll pastry into a 9-inch pie plate. Ease pastry into pie plate, being careful not to stretch pastry. Trim pastry to 1/2 inch beyond edge of pie plate. Fold under extra pastry. Crimp edge as desired. Generously prick bottom and side of pastry in pie plate with a fork. Prick all around where bottom and side meet. Line pastry with a double thickness of foil. Bake in a 450 degree F oven for 8 minutes. Remove foil. Bake 5 to 6 minutes more or until golden. Cool on a wire rack.

Rosy Rhubarb Sauce
 

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 tablespoon finely shredded orange peel
  • 6 cups 1/2-inch thick sliced rhubard

Directions

In a saucepan, mix sugar, water, and orange peel. Bring to boiling. Add rhubarb. Simmer, uncovered, about 8 minutes or until rhubarb is tender and mixture is thickened, stirring as necessary to prevent sticking. Cool. Chill in the refrigerator. Makes 3-1/2 cups.
