“Jane’s Pie of the Month” Makes Pie Baking Easy

PieChef.com is devoted to the fine art of pie baking. Pie Chef Jane Fisher shares her love of pies and baking and offers humorous pie stories as well as tried-and-true recipes that produce delicious pies.

A new addition to the site is Jane’s Pie of the Month. Based on seasonal ingredients, holidays, and the rhythm of the year, Jane’s Pie of the Month encourages people to take on the challenge of baking one pie each month. April’s Pie of the Month was “the-pie-that’s-not-a-pie,” Boston Cream Pie, in honor of Patriots Day, while February offered a “Cheery Cherry Pie” to celebrate both Valentine’s Day and George Washington’s famous adventures with the cherry tree. Jane also shares funny stories of potential pies-of-the-month that didn’t come out quite right—like “George’s Chocolate Cherry Mess”—in the section called “Edible Bloopers.”

Recipes provide step-by-step directions and include individual “Tips from Jane” that can help both the novice and the accomplished pie chef succeed. February’s Cheery Cherry Pie recipe, for example comments on the use of frozen cherries versus fresh cherries. Another tip offers advice on separating eggs so that you’ll be able to make perfect meringues.

Unlike many cooking sites that offer thousands of recipes, PieChef.com is selective. It may not have every pie ever made, but Jane promises that the recipes result in excellent pies that don’t require you to spend all day in the kitchen. And with at least one new pie each month, the site will provide plenty of choice for the at-home pie chef. Plan now to make “Red, white, and Blueberry Pie” for July 4th. Recipes are available at http://piechef.com/recipes/index.html.
