Ingredients for Blueberry Pie with Meyer Lemon Ice Cream

• 1 1/2 sticks cold unsalted butter, cut into pea-size pieces, plus extra for pie plate
• 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for rolling
• Pinch kosher salt
• 3 to 4 tablespoons ice water
• 2 pints fresh blueberries
• 1 Meyer lemon, zested and juiced
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• Meyer Lemon Ice Cream, recipe follows
• 3 cups heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 Meyer lemons, zested and juiced
• 1 cup sugar
• 6 large eggs

Directions for Blueberry Pie with Meyer Lemon Ice Cream

1. Combine the butter, flour and salt in a food processor. Pulse, pulse, pulse until the mixture looks like finely grated cheese. Add half of the ice water and pulse again. The mixture should start to come together to form a rough ball; if it still seems dry, add the remaining ice water and pulse until it has formed a rough ball. Remove the mixture from the food processor to a clean work surface and form it into 2 discs. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. (This can be done a few days in advance.)
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
3. Combine blueberries, lemon zest and juice, sugar and cornstarch in a large bowl. Toss to combine. Set aside.
4. Remove dough from the refrigerator 20 to 30 minutes before using to allow it to soften up a bit. Dust the dough and a work surface with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll one disc of dough out, rotating the dough a quarter turn after each roll and dusting lightly with flour if it feels tacky, into an even 11-inch circle about 1/8-inch thick.
5. Butter a 9-inch pie plate and lay the dough in the plate. (There should be about 1/2-inch dough hanging over the sides. If there is more than that, trim it with a sharp pair of kitchen shears.) Fold the dough underneath itself around the rim of the pie plate and pinch or crimp into desired shape.
6. Roll out second disc of dough and slice into 1 1/2-inch strips.
7. Fill the pie with blueberries and lattice the dough strips on top. Crimp the edges to seal. Bake until the internal temperature reaches 195 degrees F, about 50 minutes. Allow to cool and set, about 1 hour. Serve topped with Meyer Lemon Ice Cream.
8. Prepare a large bowl of ice water and set aside. Combine the cream, vanilla extract, lemon zest and 1/2 cup sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, turn off the heat and stir in lemon juice. Combine the eggs and the remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a small bowl and beat to a homogeneous consistency.
9. Strain the cream mixture, then whisk a third of the cream mixture into the egg mixture. Immediately whisk the egg mixture back into the remaining cream mixture.
10. Chill the mixture over the ice water bath.
11. Churn the chilled mixture in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer’s directions. Transfer to a container and freeze, 2 hours.
12. Special equipment: an ice cream machine

• Blue Cheese – Blue cheese or bleu cheese is cheese made with cultures of the mold Penicillium, giving it spots or veins of the mold throughout the cheese, which can vary in color through various shades of blue and green. This carries a distinct smell, either from that or various specially cultivated bacteria. Some blue cheeses are injected with spores before the curds form, and others have spores mixed in with the curds after they form. Blue cheeses are typically aged in a temperature-controlled environment such as a cave. Blue cheese can be eaten by itself or can be spread, crumbled or melted into or over a range of other foods.The characteristic flavor of blue cheeses tends to be sharp and salty. Their distinct smell comes from both the mold and types of bacteria encouraged to grow on the cheese: for example, the bacterium Brevibacterium linens is responsible for the smell of many blue cheeses, as well as foot odor and other human body odors.
• Fruit – In botany, a fruit is the seed-bearing structure in flowering plants that is formed from the ovary after flowering.Fruits are the means by which flowering plants (also known as angiosperms) disseminate their seeds. Edible fruits in particular have long propagated using the movements of humans and animals in a symbiotic relationship that is the means for seed dispersal for the one group and nutrition for the other; in fact, humans and many animals have become dependent on fruits as a source of food. Consequently, fruits account for a substantial fraction of the world’s agricultural output, and some (such as the apple and the pomegranate) have acquired extensive cultural and symbolic meanings.In common language usage, “fruit” normally means the fleshy seed-associated structures (or produce) of plants that typically are sweet or sour and edible in the raw state, such as apples, bananas, grapes, lemons, oranges, and strawberries. In botanical usage, the term “fruit” also includes many structures that are not commonly called “fruits”, such as nuts, bean pods, corn kernels, tomatoes, and wheat grains.
• Lemon – The lemon (Citrus limon) is a species of small evergreen tree in the flowering plant family Rutaceae, native to Asia, primarily Northeast India (Assam), Northern Myanmar or China.The tree’s ellipsoidal yellow fruit is used for culinary and non-culinary purposes throughout the world, primarily for its juice, which has both culinary and cleaning uses. The pulp and rind are also used in cooking and baking. The juice of the lemon is about 5% to 6% citric acid, with a pH of around 2.2, giving it a sour taste. The distinctive sour taste of lemon juice makes it a key ingredient in drinks and foods such as lemonade and lemon meringue pie.
• Dessert – Dessert (/dɪˈzɜːrt/) is a course that concludes a meal. The course consists of sweet foods, such as confections, and possibly a beverage such as dessert wine and liqueur. In some parts of the world, such as much of Central Africa and West Africa, and most parts of China, there is no tradition of a dessert course to conclude a meal.The term dessert can apply to many confections, such as biscuits, cakes, cookies, custards, gelatins, ice creams, pastries, pies, puddings, macaroons, sweet soups, tarts and fruit salad. Fruit is also commonly found in dessert courses because of its naturally occurring sweetness. Some cultures sweeten foods that are more commonly savory to create desserts.
