FRESH ORANGE PIE
I love the fresh strawberry and blue berry pies, in which the fresh fruit is enfolded in a glistening glaze. Would any other fruit work in this same way, I wondered. Then I found not one, but two, such pies with unusual fruit. One is a fresh pineapple pie (posted) and the other is this one in which fresh orange segments rest in a luscious glaze and just invite you to give it a try.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare dough for a 1-crust pie, adding grated orange zest. Line pie plate with pastry. Prick pastry with fork to prevent puffing during baking. Bake in preheated oven until golden, about 12 minutes; cool.
- Meanwhile, peel oranges and section into segments. Squeeze membrane and reserve juice; you should have about 1 cup. Pour sugar over segments and let stand 1 hour. Drain liquid from segments, add to reserved juice to make 1-1/2 cups (add extra juice if necessary).
- Place juice in a double boiler with salt and cornstarch. Cook until thickened. Add vanilla. Cool to room temperature.
- Spread apricot jam on baked pie shell. Add orange segments, spreading over jam. Pour cooled sauce over orange segments. Chill at least 1 hour before serving.
- To serve: garnish with toasted coconut.
FARMHOUSE FRESH: ORANGE - RHUBARB PIE
Nearly every farmhouse in Wisconsin has its own rhubarb patch; ours is nestled between the clothesline poles, along with tulips and daffodils. Rhubarb is LOADED with healthy nutrients--finding a delivery system is the trick (sugar helps!). Time noted does NOT including cooling time after the pie is baked.

Tips:
- Use fresh oranges: The fresher the oranges, the better the pie will taste. Look for oranges that are heavy for their size and have a bright, vibrant color.
- Zest the oranges before juicing them: The zest of an orange contains a lot of flavor, so be sure to zest the oranges before you juice them. You can use a microplane zester or a vegetable peeler to remove the zest.
- Use a combination of fresh and frozen oranges: If you don't have enough fresh oranges, you can use a combination of fresh and frozen oranges. Just be sure to thaw the frozen oranges before using them.
- Don't overcook the orange filling: The orange filling should be thick and bubbly, but not overcooked. Overcooked filling will be tough and chewy.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving: The pie needs time to cool and set before it can be served. Let the pie cool for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.
