The Rationality of Pie: February 2011
http://pie2011.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
The Rationality of Pie. One man's year-long endeavor to determine whether pie is really as good as he wants it to be. Coconut Cream and Coconut Custard. Or "A Tough Nut To Crack.". This weekend, I tackled the coconut pies again. You may remember that my last outing. With Coconut Cream Pie ended in miserable failure. You, dear reader, deserve better, and I do have a project to complete. I figured I would give it one more shot, with some modifications. The finished pie was a gorgeous golden brown, with a l...

The Rationality of Pie. One man's year-long endeavor to determine whether pie is really as good as he wants it to be. I'm told that, this weekend, there's some type of equine event. Down in the Bluegrass State. And that said event has inspired a range. Of tasty concoctions and confections. While I'm all for mint juleps. This is a pie blog, after all.

The Rationality of Pie: Homestead Chess Pie
http://pie2011.blogspot.com/2011/03/homestead-chess-pie.html
The Rationality of Pie. One man's year-long endeavor to determine whether pie is really as good as he wants it to be. I've heard of chess pie. For years, but have never seen one nor had the opportunity to try a slice. I don't recall ever even having seen. A recipe for chess pie. The recipe from Pie. Calls for baking 30-35 minutes until a knife inserted at the center comes out clean. After 35 minutes, the pie had browned slightly, but was still very 'jiggly' and my tester came out wet. I thought t...The s...

The Rationality of Pie: 2012 Pie Resolution
http://pie2011.blogspot.com/2012/01/2012-pie-resolution.html
The Rationality of Pie. One man's year-long endeavor to determine whether pie is really as good as he wants it to be. Cross-posted from my personal blog Tro Creideamh. One in a series of posts about 2012 resolutions. I still want to explore pies, but I think a more relaxed goal is in order. In 2012, I will bake a new pie every month and hopefully blog about the experience. I've put together a list, primarily based on pies I didn't get to last year. January - Nutmeg Pie. February - Oatmeal Butterscotch Pie.

The Rationality of Pie: Pine Nut Pie
http://pie2011.blogspot.com/2011/05/pine-nut-pie.html
The Rationality of Pie. One man's year-long endeavor to determine whether pie is really as good as he wants it to be. This will be a brief post. While this week's pie is amazingly good- and amazingly, not that bad for you, relatively speaking- I have a Mississippi River bargeful of other things to get done tonight. And to top it all off, I'm nodding off at the keyboard. The recipe for Pine Nut Pie comes from Ken Haedrich's book Pie. And I strongly suggest you go and look it up. Depending on your curr...

The Rationality of Pie: Like Virginia Diner's Peanut Pie
http://pie2011.blogspot.com/2011/04/like-virginia-diners-peanut-pie.html
The Rationality of Pie. One man's year-long endeavor to determine whether pie is really as good as he wants it to be. Like Virginia Diner's Peanut Pie. Yes, you read that right. Peanut pie. Not peanut butter pie. Peanut pie. As described in Ken Haedrich's account of the owner of Virginia Diner. Like a pecan pie, only better." I'm not entirely sure I agree with the 'better' part, but Peanut Pie is certainly like a pecan pie made with groundnuts instead. Where he found this recipe. A la fin du jour. But in...

The Rationality of Pie: Blackberry Silk Pie
http://pie2011.blogspot.com/2011/03/blackberry-silk-pie.html
The Rationality of Pie. One man's year-long endeavor to determine whether pie is really as good as he wants it to be. For every mountaintop, there has to be a valley, right? We've been hiking along the ridge for a few weeks now with some great pies. This week, however, I think we're off the trail. This is the pre-baking color. Custard, yum. Blackberries, yum. Blackberry custard, not so much. Are we back in January? Post-bake. It's only slightly prettier in real life. Flavor-wise, this pie is okay. Yo...
