Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in butter or lard until mixture is an even crumbly texture. Add cold water a tablespoon at a time and mix until dough comes together.
• Shape the dough into a disc, wrap, and chill in the refrigerator. While pastry is chilling, prepare filling.
• Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut into chunks and boil in a medium size pot of water until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain, mash the potatoes, and set aside.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, and sauté until they are softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the 1/2-cup of water to the skillet.
• Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper, and place it into the skillet skin side down.
• Spoon liquid and onions over the salmon, cover the skillet, and cook until the salmon is opaque, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the salmon cool slightly.
• Remove the skin and break the salmon into pieces. Add the salmon, onions, and poaching liquid to the mashed potatoes and mix to combine. Taste and adjust salt and pepper if needed.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• On a lightly floured surface, divide dough in half and form two balls. Flatten one ball with your hands, and roll dough to about 12-inches in diameter, to fit a 9-inch pie pan.
• Place the pastry into the pie plate and add the salmon pie filling. Gently pat the filling down to remove any air spaces.
• Brush around the outer edge of the pastry with the beaten egg. Roll out the top pastry and place on top of the pie filling.
• Fold the top crust under the bottom crust and pinch the edges. Brush with egg wash and cut vent holes.
• Bake the salmon pie in a preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown. While the salmon pie is baking, make the dill béchamel sauce.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. Gradually add milk stirring constantly. When sauce begins to thicken, add the lemon juice, dill, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 2 minutes. Keep warm until ready to serve.

PINK-LEMONADE MERINGUE PIE

Steps:

• To prepare crust: Place flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and cold butter chunks in a food processor. Pulse until the butter forms pebble-size pieces. Add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough is evenly moist (but not wet) and is starting to clump together, being careful not to overmix. Pat the dough into a 5-inch disk; wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Remove from the refrigerator about 15 minutes before rolling out.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lightly dust a clean surface with flour. Roll the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie pan (not deep-dish). Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Fold under the excess dough and flute or trim with scissors and crimp. Prick the crust several times with a fork; line with parchment paper or foil and cover with pie weights (or dry beans).
• Bake the crust for 15 minutes. Remove the weights and paper (or foil) and continue baking until the crust is golden, 8 to 12 minutes more. Let cool completely on a wire rack, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, prepare filling: Place raspberries in a mini food processor and puree. Transfer to a fine-mesh sieve and, working over a small bowl, press on the raspberries with a rubber spatula until just the seeds remain. Discard the seeds and set the raspberry puree aside.
• Whisk egg yolks and lemon zest together in a small bowl. Set near the stove.
• Whisk 3/4 cup sugar, cornstarch and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium heavy saucepan. Whisk in boiling water, lemon juice and the reserved raspberry puree. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil, whisking frequently, until the mixture is the consistency of pudding, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Add 1 tablespoon of the hot lemon mixture into the egg yolks and whisk until smooth. Repeat a few more times until the yolks are tempered. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the yolk mixture into the pan and whisk until smooth. Cook over medium-low heat until combined and thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add butter, stirring until melted. Cover and keep warm.
• Beat egg whites in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until frothy. Add cream of tartar and the remaining pinch of salt; beat on high speed until soft peaks form. Slowly add the remaining 1/3 cup sugar and beat until the mixture holds stiff shiny peaks. Beat in vanilla.
• Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Immediately spread the meringue over the filling all the way to the edge of the crust. Make decorative peaks, if desired, with an offset spatula or knife.
• Bake the pie until the top is lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack, about 3 hours, before slicing.

• Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
