Thank you! Note: Several years ago I treated a young man from Key West, Florida who was dying of AIDS
- 3
A couple of weeks before he died, he gave me his 75 year old family recipe for Key Lime Pie
- 4
He explained that most Key Lime Pie recipes use condensed milk
- 5
Even restaurants in Key West serve Key Lime Pie made with condensed milk
- 6
Jessie was disdainful of this version
- 7
His family recipe, passed from generation to generation, does not used condensed milk

Jessie claimed it is the only authentic Key Lime Pie recipe
