With all due respect to Fafblog! the whole world’s only original source for Friday pie blogs, and also Who is IOZ?’s ostentatious Foodie Friday series, here is a Friday Mustard Mellon post about the pie I made the other day:
Delicious!
You want the recipe? The filling is just…
- A hatful of assorted wild berries. (It’s the middle of winter, so they were frozen. We had to dig them out of the snowpack. Just kidding, they were in the freezer.)
- Two pocketfuls of sugar. (To bring out the fruit juices, and also possibly to enhance the sweetness, who really knows with all that food chemistry mumbo jumbo, but two pocketfuls is a lot.)
- A mouthful of flower. (As a thickener, I suppose.)
- A fistful of justice. (For garnish.)
I dumped all of that in a homemade pie shell and handcrafted the lattice to go over the top using more homemade pie shell. Then baked it to perfection. Look at that photo. That’s what we call in the business, “golden brown.”
Mellon Dad made a chocolate cream pie. Here it is chillin’ in the fridge, before getting the whip cream topping treatment:
