Cook in double-boiler until THICKENED; (thick enough not to run; about the consistency of SET pudding or yogurt. Warning: this may take some time, especially if you are faking a double boiler; be prepared to stand watch for a while over the burner. Pour into pie shell.
MERINGUE: Beat egg whites. Gradually add 3 tsp sugar and beat until stiff-peaking. Spread on top of pie.
Bake at 350°f for 15 minutes or until meringue is browned.

The recipe will work with any type of orange, but comes out best with the Tarocco Blood Orange, especially with the color.
