Here's a couple of recipes for Raisin Pie for Bill McKenna. The first one is from Culinary Arts Institute Encyclopedic Cookbook, 1959. The second two are from "Farm Journal's Complete Pie Cookbook" 1965. Enjoy! Cathy Watson, CathCooks@...

Simmer raisins in water for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter, sugar, flour and beaten egg yolks. Return to heat; cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is slightly thickened. Cool briefly and stir in nuts. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites.

Spoon into pie shell, mounding slightly in the center. Bake at 325F for 50 to

60 minutes.
