Simmer raisins in water for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in
butter, sugar, flour and beaten egg yolks. Return to heat; cook, stirring
constantly, until mixture is slightly thickened. Cool briefly and stir in
nuts. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites.

Spoon into pie shell, mounding slightly in the center. Bake at 325F for 50
to
60 minutes.
