    My great-grandmother ALWAYS pre-baked her pie crusts a bit in the oven to get rid of that raw taste. Now, every time I bite into someone's sweet potato pie, I can tell when the pie filling went into a raw pie shell. Pre baking the crust makes a positive difference as taste is concerned!

    As a baby boomer, I remember the times of peeling sweet potatoes, mashing the pulp, seasoning the pulp (nutmeg, sugar, etc), helping making the pie dough from scratch (yeah, flour, eggs, shortening, etc), rolling out the dough with a rolling pin, putting in the filling and lo and behold, a pie. And also help make banana puddings and pies and peach cobblers. Miss those days of being in the kitchen .with my mother.

    Sis, that pie was banging I'm sure, and very professional looking. Have you ever made a Bean pie with dry Navy Beans, they are great! (Not canned beans) Similar concept with ingredients, but you have to make them and let them sit once baked for at two to three days in advance, so the flavor can marinade through with them, and they can get firm in texture which is just like sweet potato pie.
