I ****ing love pies. I don't know what it is, but give me cake and I'm sad, but give me pie and we're best friends. So, with that said, what kinds of pies are people making/eating for Thanksgiving (American Thanksgiving for our Canadian members)?
This year I decided to go non-standard and try something totally different that I've never done before. For one of my pies, I did a more standard berry pie. I mixed golden raspberries, raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries, squeezed in some sweet lemon juice, and added a little mint. I probably should have bruised and torn the mint, but I lightly bruised and minced it.
The weird, non-standard pie was a kiwi based pie. It's a kiwi sage pie with sliced and layered kiwi, minced sage, a little sweet lemon juice, and one thin layer of strawberry in it. I was going to do straight kiwi, but thought a little strawberry would help. And before you go thinking kiwi sage, you're a weird one nubs, I did make a kiwi sage reduction a couple of weeks back that was awesome, so I have hope for this pie.
Anyone else decide to do a little experimenting?
