RASPBERRY CREAM PIE
Here's a pie for the middle of summer, when the raspberries are ripe and dessert should be cool and creamy. Think of it as vanilla pudding in a pie shell, a messily delicious way to showcase the flavor of fresh raspberries. Ruth P. Casa-Emellos, The Times's home economist, developed this recipe in the summer of 1952. It was published as French raspberry pie but later appeared in the recipe booklet "Fruit Pies: Delightful Confections Starring Fresh Fruits" as raspberry cream pie. We've made the red currant jelly optional. If you choose to include it, you'll get a gemlike glow and a crust-and-jam combination reminiscent of a homemade Pop-Tart.

Steps:
- In a double boiler or heat-resistant bowl set over a saucepan of water, scald milk with vanilla bean. Remove bean. (It can be rinsed and reused.)
- Mix flour, sugar and salt. Add enough scalded milk to dry ingredients to make a slurry, stirring all the while. Return slurry to milk in double boiler and cook, stirring frequently until thickened.
- In a stand mixer, beat together egg yolks and whole egg. While beating, temper eggs with a few spoonfuls of thickened milk. Slowly add the rest of thickened mixture to eggs. Transfer to double boiler and cook over simmering water, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens to the consistency of thick custard. Strain and cool to room temperature. Fold in whipped cream.
- Pour mixture into baked pie shell. Cover with raspberries.
- Melt jelly over very low heat, stirring, until liquid. Pour or brush evenly over raspberries. Chill.
