Cherry pie is my favourite! My gramma always made it for me.
DO NOT drink the brandy or eat the cherries.. Ron will find you literally singing on the roof.. waving your broom and babbling.
Something about Ron is a little different lol 😂 j/k
Need to feed your husband more. He looks positively skeletal!!
justine, you are wearing another lovely ensemble. please let us inow whether you made or purchased your cap and apron. also i live on cherry hill!🍒🍒🍒
My mother made pie crust the same way in the 1940's. She always said it was the lard. Hope you saved that brandy. You deserved a couple of slugs before the old man came in from the field. Great video!
Next year I'll buy fresh cherries, pit them and preserve them in brandy. 'Cause I gotta try your cherry pie recipe! Hope you're getting better; you're in my prayers. 🙏
Need more women like her😊😊😊
Oh my gosh Justine! Feed Ron! The meat has fallen off his bones! 😅
Yum
That skeleton waving cracks me up lol!
That cherry pie reminds me of a big cherry tart. I'm used to seeing cherry pies with a layer of crust on top, maybe that's just me. Looks good though!
You GOTTA feed your feind better…hes looking a little bony over there 😂
Found it, yay! These are always so relaxing to watch….even with the spook waving in the corner 😂❤
You need to feed your friend Justine, he looking a little peckish!! 😂
Looks good! George Washington would be proud to eat a pie such as that.
Is the wooden whisk hard to clean?
What’s making the skeleton’s hand move if they didn’t have electricity back then?

Puff Paste (American Cookery, Amelia Simmons, 1796, Hartford, Connecticut)
2 1/2 cups of flour
1 cup of cold, salted butter. Cut into cubes
2 large eggs, whisked
Combine your flour and butter using either a pastry cutter or a knife and fork. Work the butter into the flour until small, pea size beads of butter are spread throughout the flour. Add in the whisked eggs. Work into a dough with your hands. Cut into 2 halves and roll each half out onto a well floured surface. This recipe is enough to make a top and bottom crust.
* Most puff paste recipes from the 18th and early 19th centuries are not comparable to a modern puff paste, but are rather like a regular pie crust.
To Make a Cherry Pie (The New-England cookery, 1808, Lucy Emerson, Montpelier, Vermont)
2 cups of de-pitted cherries
0.5 cups of red currants (consider switching this up with cranberries!)
0.5 cups of sugar, divided in half
A top and bottom pie paste
Lay a pie paste on the bottom of a pie pan. Throw sugar over your bottom crust. Lay over it your cherries and currants mixed up well. Throw over it the remaining half of your sugar. Put on a top crust. Bake in a 350 degree oven for approximately 40 minutes, or until the crust is firm and cooked. Allow the pie to settle for at least 20 minutes before serving.
