Wow, lots of great tips from expert pie bakers. Thanks. I guess hubby is going to have a lot of pies to sample in the next few months. But I don't think he'll mind. The irony is I can't even eat any of them. I have to be on a gluten free diet so I have to look for recipes using GF flour, which will make baking my pies even more challenging.
But if you have any more tips for me, let me know. And thanks again.
