    1 tb Env unflavored gelatin
    1/2 c Sugar
    1/4 ts Salt
    4 Egg yolks
    1/2 c Lime juice
    1/4 c Water

    boiling. Remove from heat; stir in grated peel. Add food coloring
    sparingly to tint pale green. Chill, stirring occasionally, until
    the mixture mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon. Beat egg
    whites until soft peaks form; gradually add 1/2 cup sugar, beating
    to stiff peaks. Fold gelatin mixture into egg whites. Fold in
    whipped cream. Pile into cooled baked pastry shell. Chill until
    firm. Spread with more whipped cream; edge with grated lime peel.
    Sprinkle chopped pistachio nuts in center. Garnish with thinly
    sliced lime placed in whipped cream mounds around edge of pie.
