Sister Pie review in Michigan Live
Lisa explains how she went to New York to become a theater directer, started a video cooking blog and came back to Michigan a master baker.
Dough is shaped into a disc, wrapped in plastic and throughly chilled.
Lisa uses a French rolling pin with tapered ends.
The crust is cut to size before being place in the pie tin.
The edges were carefully crimped.
Deborah found the salted maple was fantastic!
Delray enjoyed the lemon meringue. It was just as good as the maple or even better!
