When can you eat lemon meringue pie?

Hey team, pondering when's the best time to dig into lemon meringue pie. Is it right after it cools down, or should you chill it first? Some say eating it fresh enhances flavors, but others prefer the texture once it’s set in the fridge. What are your thoughts or practices on this?

Hey there! For the best flavor and texture, it's ideal to chill lemon meringue pie in the fridge for a few hours before serving. This allows the filling to set properly and the flavors to meld together perfectly. Enjoy!

Lemon meringue pie: a fresh delight! Enjoy it at its peak within a day of assembly for the perfect balance of tart, fluffy, and flaky. Leftovers are still tasty in the fridge for a day or two, but the meringue might get weepy. Fresh is best, but ultimately, devour it whenever your citrusy cravings hit!

Hey, thanks for asking! Personally, I love diving into a slice after it's chilled for a bit—totally brings out the flavors and the meringue's texture is on point. But hey, fresh out of the oven has its charm too! Appreciate the suggestion!
