Pies you like


What do you think of when summer comes around? Is it pies? It probably not pies.
OK so maybe it's not pies, but you might be thinking of shortcrust pastry. Who isn't?

I've recently been getting into making my own shortcrust and applying that to my cooking. 
The biggest push towards making pies was simply that I wanted to eat a pie. This was back around Easter. I had some friends over for lunch, and I thought, well why not bake a couple of mini-pies. 
It went down like a peach. Is that a saying? Why not. Let's make it a saying.
