Follow instructions on pie crust to pre-bake it. Cool baked shell completely.

In a small bowl, combine flour and sugar, tossing with a fork to blend.

Add flour-sugar mixture to boiling water and cook, whisking often, until thickened (about 5 minutes).

Return to medium low heat and cook, whisking, until smooth and velvety (about 2 minutes).

Add vinegar and lemon extract and whisk just to blend. Turn into cooled pastry shell and refrigerate until set (about 2 hours).
