I always try to remember it when I someone here mentions it...then promptly forget again. I'm gonna *try* to do better this year. I was making an apple pie just a while ago for tonights dessert, although one of the kids asked for pumpkin. So perhaps pumpkin shall be my Pi day pie :)

# 1
1 c. sour cream 1 c. sugar 1 c. raisins 3 eggs, well beaten 1/2 tsp. cinnamon 1/4 tsp. cloves
Combine all ingredients. Pour into unbaked pastry shell and bake at 375 degrees until set. (Eggs may be separated and whites used for meringue.) Bake pie, then beat egg whites with 6 tablespoons sugar until stiff and glossy. Pile on baked filling and brown at 425 degrees or place under broiler for a few minutes until browned.
# 2
1 c. sour cream 1/2 c. raisins, chopped fine 1/2 tsp. cinnamon 1/4 tsp. cloves 1 pinch nutmeg 1 c. sugar 3 egg yolks 1 egg white
Mix all ingredients and pour into unbaked pie shell. Bake like lemon custard. Then beat 2 egg whites; add 2 tablespoons of sugar and beat until stiff but not dry. Be sure all sugar granules are dissolved. Spread on pie and set in moderate oven until golden brown.
# 3
1 c. sour cream 2/3 c. sugar 1 egg + 2 egg yolks 1/4 tsp. cloves 1/2 tsp. cinnamon 1/8 tsp. nutmeg Pinch of salt 1/2 c. raisins
Mix together. Bake in unbaked pie crust at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. 2 egg whites 4 tbsp. sugar 1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
Beat until stiff peaks. Scoop onto baked pie and bake until meringue light brown. Cool and serve.

Soak raisins until tender; mix eggs, sugar, flour and sour cream and add to raisins; cook until thick, stirring constantly. Cool a bit; pour into shell; cover with meringue. Add cream of tartar to stiffly beaten egg-whites; gradually beat in sugar and flavoring. Pile meringue on pie sealing onto edges of crust to prevent weeping; bake 400 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. Cut with knife dipped in water each time. -- Dimitri

This was the first year I'd heard about it, and I had planned to make a lobster pot pie for the occasion, but then my work schedule changed so I won't have time to make it on that date. Maybe next year.

Thanks, Dimitri, I couldn't find a recipe for raisin pie and this will do nicely. You wouldn't happen to have a recipe for a two crust raisin pie would you? When I was growing up in the Carolinas, this was referred to as a Funeral Pie.....you took one over when someone died. -ginny
