One Dough, Ten Breads: Making Great Bread by Hand by Sarah Black

Show description

Not only does it keep the top crust from sagging, it also draws in some of the excess juice, thus lessening the chances of boil-over in the oven. You can also use peaches, apricots, plums, and cherries to make a deep-dish pie. You will need about 3 pounds of any one of these fruits. Makes one deep-dish pie, serving 6 Basic All-American Pie Dough for a 9-inch pie shell (page 20) 1 cup sugar 2½ tablespoons cornstarch � teaspoon salt 6 cups fresh or frozen blackberries, blueberries, or boysenberries, about 2¼ pounds (it is not necessary to thaw frozen berries) 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces Preheat the oven to 425°F.

No two are exactly alike, and each distributes heat differently. Therefore, you should get to know your oven and keep mental—or actual—notes on how it behaves. Do you find “hot spots,” where things brown well, and “cool spots,” where they brown hardly at all? For most home baking, such quirks aren’t a problem, as long as you know about them and make adjustments in rack placement or rotation during baking. Complexity is not a quality I associate with pie-making ingredients. They are simple and widely available.
