Notes about Recipes in this book

  • All-butter pie dough

    • ChrisLV on November 06, 2019

      This recipe did not work. Made an extremely dry dough that could not be rolled out without shattering into many pieces.

  • Lemon chess pie

    • MarciK on June 27, 2019

      I used 1 tablespoon cornmeal and 1 tablespoon flour instead of 2 tablespoons flour for a more traditional version. It was very good and my guests loved it. The filling was enough for a moderate sized deep dish pie pan.
