Well- the pie below? Wrong pie. It wasn’t the one my mom ate growing up. It tasted alright, even though it was very unattractive and we didn’t even serve it at dinner (not like we were lacking in the dessert category anyhow.) The good news here is that when I got home, I looked at the recipe I had from my grandmother (I’d forgotten it here) and even though the one I found online looked similar, they’re not the same. So I may yet be able to recreate this family favorite. For the moment though, we’re rather satiated as far as pie goes so I think I’ll wait a bit on that experiment. I’d post a picture of the pie I did make, but my camera’s gone a little bit missing in all the Hoopla.
ETA- found the camera:
Oh- I’ve also decided that I just don’t like that vodka pie crust recipe. I’ll stick with the Cooks Illustrated (other) best pie crust instead.
