and yet, invite people over to sample pie, nor, post recipe to pie is on that list... :)

i've not made a fruit-pie with two crusts since pie year in 4-H. i've been strictly pumpkin, custard, coconut-custard, and cobbler since then.

i'm using the recipe on the back of the blackberry can label (only replacing one can of blackberries with a can of blueberries). i'll use the curst recipe in my good housekeeping cookbook. ;)

and i'll use the recipe from today's paper for the peach pie.

i also need to make colcannon.

I love using frozen berries -- they're easy just to toss with flour then to pour into the crust. They handle well.

Re:

what's colcannon?

and, since I imagine you'd know:), what's cardamom?

[krasota.livejournal.com]

colcannon is wonderful. it's a traditional lughnasadh food (http://www.celticspirit.org/lughnasadh.htm). well, traditional in our family. death to the red hag, indeed!

as for cardamom, it's an indian spice in the ginseng family. it's sold in pod form (these are the fruit of the plant; you want green pods), seeds (from the pod), or ground (ground up seeds). i buy green pods in the bulk section at the whole foods market, then crush them to extract the seeds. for chai, i just crush the pods and toss 'em into the teapot/infuser with the tea.

The invitation is implicit. We should just show up.

Mmmm, pie.

That's a nice ˇ you've got there. Where'd it come from?

[krasota.livejournal.com]
