MUM'S RAISIN PIE
My Mum baked all the time :) Her pies were to die for. I always liked her raisin pie the best! Mum made her own pastry. She always used the recipe on the Tenderflake Lard and it turned out flakey and absolutely scrumptious every time. I'm not that ambitious and find the frozen Tenderflake pie crusts to be the closest to her...

Steps:
- 1. Pre-heat oven to 425F. Combine raisins and water in a saucepan and boil for 5 minutes. Stir occasionally so it doesn't stick to bottom of pot.
- 2. Blend sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and salt. Reduce heat a little and add to raisin liquid and cook, stirring until clear. Remove from heat.
- 3. Stir in vinegar and butter. Cool slightly.
- 4. Turn into pastry-lined pan. Cover with top pastry (pierce top in several places) or use lattice strips of pastry. Bake at 425°F. about 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Let cool.
Tips:
- Prep your ingredients in advance. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you have everything you need before you start assembling your pie.
- Use a sharp knife to cut your pears. This will help you get clean, even slices.
- Don't overcrowd your pie pan. Leave some space between the pears and raisins so that they can cook evenly.
- Bake your pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help to create a golden brown crust.
- Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit for the remaining baking time. This will help to prevent the crust from overcooking.
- Let your pie cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to develop.
