Bubby's Homemade Pies

by Ronald G. Silver, Jen Bervin

"One of my fondest childhood memories is of my aunt's pies cooling on the window sill, while father sat with his deputy . . . wait . . . that might be Opie Taylor. If you love pie, and I can only assume you do, Bubby's pies are the best. I'm eating one right now."
--Jon Stewart

"I almost ate the book! If my bubby made pies like this, I'd weigh 400 pounds."
--Billy Crystal

"If a pie cooling in a country breeze is your idea of baking nirvana, with its golden crust and juicy filling beckoning, then the delightful recipes in Bubby's Homemade Pies will guide you toward that goal and, perhaps, initiate the appearance of 'Pie of the Month' at your house. Now wouldn't that be a sweet and welcoming sight?"
--Lisa Yockelson, award-winning author of Baking by Flavor and ChocolateChocolate

"My dad always says, 'Save your fork, there's pie!'"
--Kate Douglass, owner of The Spotted Pig

A happy book. Just look at the cover you smile. I have enjoyed browsing through this ample book though as of yet heaven's tried any of the recipes.
Here's a few on the docket:
~Pear Pie with Caramel Sauce and Creme Fraiche
~Wild Ramps with Stilton
~Duck confit Pie with Glazed Figs and Blackberry Glaze

So whadaya think of that!?

I was at the library and this book screamed at me to take it home. I haven't made any of the recipes from this book, but I'm hoping someone gets it for me for Christmas. This book should come with a bib - just reading it will make you drool.

I would give this another star, but there are too many typos, some of which impact the recipes (not acceptable!) Ron Silver, if you write another cookbook, hire me to edit it for you!

Try "Bumbleberry" for starters...yum.
