RUTH REICHL APRICOT PIE



Ruth Reichl Apricot Pie image

Ruth Reichl, the celebrated food writer and editor in chief of Gourmet magazine, is a regular Greenmarket shopper. She says this recipe works very well with mushy apricots, too ripe for easy eating, as well as with underripe apricots, which will require more sugar. (You can also use peaches: quarter them after pitting.) Serve some whipped cream or ice cream on top.

Tips:

  • For a flaky crust, use a combination of butter and shortening. The butter will add flavor, while the shortening will help create a tender crust.
  • Be sure to chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help prevent the crust from shrinking in the oven.
  • When filling the pie, leave a 1-inch border around the edge of the crust. This will help prevent the filling from bubbling over.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help create a golden brown crust.
  • Reduce the temperature to 350°F and continue baking for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the crust to firm up.

Conclusion:

This Catoctin Mountain Apricot Blueberry Pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, sweet and tangy filling, and beautiful lattice top, this pie is sure to impress your friends and family.
