How to Make the Ultimate Cherry Pie at Home | ChefSteps

- We think the phrase “as American as baseball, hot dogs, and apple pie” needs an update to include this supercharged version of summer's true superstar: the cherry pie.
We use a three-stage baking process that guarantees a crisp, evenly browned crust. To ensure the filling survives the extended bake time, instead of using cornstarch, we use clear jel, a modified cornstarch that's way more heat resistant. The combo of sour cherries, cherry juice, lemon juice, clear jel, and citric acid creates a creamy, tart, and bright filling packed with cherry flavor (and color!).

*Not joshua Weissman* killed me dude.
"Not Joshua Wiessman" had me cracking like that crust on the pie! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
“Not Joshua Weissman” 😂 give that editor a raise!
🤣🤣🤣
I seriously was laughing so hard I was crying.
Matthew is such a legend! this pie looks amazing
Cherry pie is the best. Great color and unbeatable blend of tart and sweet flavor.
Can we get an "Ultimate Lemon Bar"? Nothing says summer like cool citrus.
She's my cherry pie
Cool drink of water, such a sweet surprise
Taste so good make a grown man cry
Sweet cherry pie
That looks good 😯
Love that rolling pin!
That pie ain't the only thing baked here haha. Looks delicious.
My dude has skills. Respect.
Hell yes! The best pie
That 3rd common mistake remark at the 10:10 about the oven is probably highly dependent on region in the world. Even my 20 year old cheap domestic oven has top and bottom heating elements as well as a broiler element inside the oven. As had our old stove that was from the 70ies, it had top and bottom elements as well. Don't think I ever saw a normal domestic oven with only heating from below that wasn't a gas oven.

I literally just made a cherry pie this evening. Damn. Why couldn't you have uploaded five hours earlier? I mean, I stand by my recipe, I even use fresh cherries from my very own cherry tree. But this does look very, very tasty.
Edit: I also don't use a lattice top! I do what you do, I make a full double crust but instead of cutting vents, I use my late grandmother's pie bird. She taught me how to bake and I think of her every time I do.
Always a reason to make Cherry Pie and level up your skills.
My ever favourite pie
NB that it can be *very* difficult to score fresh sour(!) cherries. They should be showing up around this time of year, but it's for about2 weeks. Don't be tempted to use fresh sweet cherries - get the frozen sour ones in freezer section. (sweet cherries can make for an overwhelmingly sweet pie)
Will it work if I switch the cherries for blueberries?
what did you do with the juices from the frozen cherries?
They become the goo while baking.
😋
I was just about to make this cherry pie and thought oh this would be nice to see in a video 😂😅-Also!! I got the same baking dish as the quiche-would it work well too? 🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️
The perforated quiche pan is a bit too tall for this application, but in theory, could work with some finesse.
@@Iamnobody9 Thank You So Much !! 👍👍
Where did you find the perforated quiche pan?
Can you make the pie ahead of time and leave in the fridge overnight and bake the next day?
Fo sho.
To add to this, you may wait to egg wash and sugar to prevent the sugar from liquifying.
Can gelatine be used instead of clear jel?
You use clear jel for pie filling to thicken it. A gelatin would make it a gelatinous goop, unless you just like your pie filling that way instead of a proper thick pie filling.
I’m early It is 4am here in LA
Can you use Arrow Root powder instead of "Clear Jel"? You mentioned Corn Starch and it's not as stable and clear. Arrow Root powder makes thick Chinese soups clear.
Every starch will react slightly differently. Chinese soups are mostly all clear from starch and can use a wide range of starches from water chestnut to corn. Starches have the nature to turn clear in any large amount of liquid like a soup base. Some starches have greater thickening power. Arrowroot is a great starch and thickener but I did no test with this pie. Even flour will turn clear after a long cook on the stove when the starch finally trumps out the protein in the flour, as in classic Escoffier sauces. Escoffier dreamed of the day that native starches would be available to the masses, and now, here we are.
I reckon that's a 90 degree turn.
No Lattice top? Looks amazing anyway! Balancing tartness and sweetness of cherries is key, and all pits must be out. If I find a pit, I no longer eat. Thats a toothbreaker. A tart pie or oversweet pie can be saved with good icecream and a coffee.
Not Joshua Weissman...amazing
"Not Josh Weissman"? LMAO
Not Joshua Weismann haha
Don't you want to divide the dough with more for the bottom?
I was so sure this was Pittsburgh Dad.
Why sieve the water?
to make sure no ice from the icewater gets in
Grant Chilly should be named Grant Crust. I think if he eats a normal yoghurt he will die fo creaminess
Matt is def Josh’s brother
Brother to all humankind.
No pie for me; I'm making a cherry clafoutis for the 4th.
I knew it wasn’t Joshua Weissman, because he wasn’t yelling at me at the start of the video.
They didn't offer a "Papa kiss" either.
Lol... I can't stand that dude.
Seeing the vegan guy use real butter brings warmth into my heart.
Could always be vegan butter :P
Love the vid, but the camera shifting's causing a bit of nausea ngl T_T
Promo*SM
saturation at 200% i see
This CHERRY PIE makes me wanna go buy some CONDOMS. or TAMPONS/MAXI PADS! LOL, IT'S THE BEST LOOKING PIE I'VE SEEN ; it can rival the Amish baked goods
Shame on you. You did NOT make true pie crust. Lazy man quiche crust..maybe…but not true pie crust. You really need to learn from Erin McDowell, she makes a classic flakey true pie crust like my grandmother used to make. I still use my grandma’s recipe and you NEVER use a processor, because the butter needs to be in much larger chunks and not look and feel like course sand. Foil on the edge..Yes! Sugar on top…Yes! Your filling…nice, but you guys never tell people where they can buy things (thickening powder) or what replacements they can use for items not easily found in a regular grocery store. Maybe you should have talked about thickeners, because cornstarch, tapioca or potato starch in the same measure can give dramatic differences. Normally I like all your videos, but fruit pies are a big deal in my family, so your take on a classic cherry was very disappointing. Nah… I’d go so far as to say shocking, using a food processor to make crust 😱 G’ma is rollin’ in her grave.
lol nobody cares about your grandma, I like the ChefSteps version
This is a rather strange over-reaction. Erin McDowell’s recipe includes instructions for making a mealy pie crust. She does prefer to use the mealy dough for custard pies and the flaky dough for fruit pies. But that’s the thing, it’s a personal preference. Nothing to shame anyone over.
Dude this is a pie video, not a war crime trial. Chill out.
Matt made a flakey pie crust that you can find in their ultimate apple pie. And it is amazing.
You must not know that pie dough for me is an art form and I recommend making pie dough by hand 99% of the time. This method is very consistent and approachable. Once you know the dough then you can master pie dough by hand. To say this is lazy is a bold statement and 'true' pie dough can only be made with love. Check out ChefSteps.com for more detail on all things about starch and pie dough. Glad you found entertainment with this video and it sparked memories of your Grandma. I will say that if butter is in larger chunks here for a flaky crust the bottom dough will risk having a weak spot or two. Traditional 2-crust pies have a lower hydration mealy bottom crust, and a flaky dough for the top. The cool thing about pies too is that when you make a pie for yourself or others you can make any pie dough you wish. Happy baking!
