Pies | Basics with Babish

I've made pies on the show before, but it's about time that I talk about the basics of making a really good pie - whether it's blueberry, apple, or pumpkin.

To those of you wondering where the savory pies are: fret not, gotta save some stuff for future episodes!

Legend says he's still making pies as he waits for his previous pies to cool down. Stuck in an infinite loop

Cutting off the edges of the extra crust reminded me of what my grandmother sometimes does when she has extra dough. She cuts them in strips or pieces, dips them in a little melted butter, rolls them in cinnamon sugar, and bakes them. They make a really tasty snack while you wait for the pie to cool.

"Look at those layers
Look at that flake
Look at those bubbles
Boy, I love to bake"

Absolute poetry

hey, i followed this recipe to make the latticed pie crust, though instead of blueberry i used a recipe from sally's baking addiction for a strawberry rhubarb filling. came out with a damn good pie, nice flaky crust, no soggy bottom, just a great result for my first try. thanks for the video.

"Pies!"
"When do we want 'em?"
"Pies!"

I resent the statement “it’s pie season.” That implies that there is a specific season for pie. This is false. All seasons are pie season so there is no pie season. There is only the fact that you should eat more pie all the time.

Everyone else: uses established measure of unit

The “just enough time to make another pie” cycle goes on until the end of Pi

You could literally learn to cook from scratch completely on Babish's channel, and that amazes me, mostly because it's so comprehensive and thorough. I've cooked most of my life and studied food preparation and tech, but I wish I'd known this channel sooner. At 17, and intermediate at cooking, there are always new things I find here.

You should do the meals that the “other mom” did for Coraline in the movie “Coraline”

Grandma Babish hunh? Shame you aren't Russian. Then it would just be Babishka.
Edit: Can't believe this needs said, esp. 8 months in, but yes, I am aware that the Russian word is Babushka. This is a Portmanteau of his channel name and Babushka, hence, Babishka.

Pie is the greatest desert ever created. However, I personally believe that the crust will either make, or break, a pie. If the crust sucks, it doesn't matter how good your filling is.

[Jacintojudio]

Those are honestly some of the most beautiful pies I’ve ever seen
