    When is the best time to put on the meringue and put under the broiler, when the filling is hot or cold? Sometimes I know it weeps or pulls away from the edges so am thinking it might have something to do with the temperature of the lemon filling. Have read before the answer but can't remember as I seldom make lemon meringue pie anymore. Making one tomorrow for company. Thanks

    Hi!  I don't normally post over here but I saw your post on active posts and thought I'd check it out.  I just made lemon meringue bars yesterday and it said to put the merginue on while the filling was hot.  I'll be interested to see what others say about it.

    I've always been told to put it on while the filling is hot and be sure to seal the edges to the crust to avoid shrinking. ... Mary Jane
