My mother passed 25 years ago(and I still miss her everyday) She always made the best pie crust.
I always bought frozen pie crust and would open a can of cherries or apples and bake. My kids loved
my "home made pie".At age 65 I said enough of this and decided my first item on my bucket list was making real homemade pie.I followed every recipe I found, and was exhausted when I finished.
Most results did not come close to my mothers.Finally I said enough, and by-passed all the rules ,frozen butter,frozen this and that, and got my hands in the mix and did not refrigerate the dough overnight. Finally success and I'm so happy to finally make pie from scratch.
Loved the article. Pat from Michigan
