1 1/4 c Sugar 1 c Chopped fresh or frozen
1/4 c Cornstarch -rhubarb
1/4 ts Salt 1 tb Grated lemon rind
1 1/4 c Water 1/3 c Lemon juice
4 Large eggs 1/4 ts Cream of tartar

1. In 2 quart saucepan, combine 1/4 C sugar, the cornstarch, and
salt. With wire whisk, gradually stir in water until cornstarch is
uniformly dispersed in water. Heat to boiling over medium heat,
stirring constantly, until a thickened pudding forms. Remove pudding

small bowl. Lightly beat the yolks and whisk in some of the pudding,
then return yolk mixture to the saucepan of pudding, stirring until
well blended. Fold rhubarb into pudding. Return mixture to medium
heat and heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and
continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb softens-5
minutes.

shallow 1 1/2-quart ovenproof bowl or casserole.

4. Heat oven to 350'F. With electric mixer at high speed, beat
reserved egg whites and the cream of tartar until light and fluffy.
Gradually beat in remaining 1/2 C sugar until meringue forms stiff
peaks when beater is slowly raised. Spread meringue over pudding,
sealing to edge of bowl. Swirl top into peaks.
