      Use this same type of dough (w/o the sugar) and fill with cooked, chilled chicken (or turkey) pot pie filling (I cut my dough into larger circles so they're shaped like empanadas). SO good and they freeze really well after they've been baked.

      Years ago I learned of a technique from Chef Michael Smith who grates frozen butter sticks on the large holes of a box grater. The pieces are brittle, easily breaking into even smaller bits, which then distribute much better throughout the flour.

    I will suggest using tapioca instead of corn starch to thicken. It’s what I use in all my fruit pies. Not large pearl, but rather the granular.

    • @msr1116
      @msr1116 Місяць тому

      I tried grinding pearl tapioca already in my pantry into powder using a spice mill, but it turned out only so-so. A grain mill or Vitamix would have yielded finer results.

      @jpe1 Місяць тому +1

  • @WastrelWay
    @WastrelWay Місяць тому +2

    The recipe is great, and obviously tasty and attractive. A tablespoon or so of brandy into the filling wouldn't hurt anything. You could add a little allspice or cloves (there are other spice options), too. Using a plastic bag, NO WAY! That is completely unnecessary and merely creates trash to throw away. Even using a food processor to make pie crust is better than that, but you have to clean it. Do it in the bowl, since you are going to have to wash the bowl anyway. You do have a pastry cutter, don't you? I don't understand these "shortcuts" or "hacks" or whatever you want to call them. Edit: Instead of a mere ruler, I use a carpenter's combination square to make sure I've got right angles.

  • @KIG024
    @KIG024 Місяць тому

    I prefer tart cherries or alternatively add lemon juice to the sweet ones so the filling is not cloyingly sweet. And in addition to mashing some of the fruit I add about a half cup of dried cherries (sometimes soaked in a combination of kir, sometimes a bit of water and a few drops of almond extract) which gives the fruit a thicker texture without adding cornstarch.
