Anon, why are there lentils in your pie crust?
And the mess

Baking beans for blind-baking.

your floor climbed up your wall, brah
>>7109372
Dried beans/peas/similar are often used like that. It acts as a weight to keep the crust in the proper shape while it bakes.

When you precook a pie crust, the middle will rise if you don't weigh it down. You can use a lot of things. I just had lentils.
Crust looks done. Need to make meringue now.
Egg whites for meringue and a little yolk because I suck at seperation
Are you making it while you post, or are you just being intentionally slow?

I'm posting as I make it
Sorry for the wait. Needed to clean some stuff. Stiff peaks get
Cheesecake filling in
Lemon curd in. Need to let it set up before I finish.

You need to be more efficient in multi tasking

Finished. Toas Ted the meringue with this bad boy. How'd I do ck?
