Orange Pie? Never

Let me make it very clear...I have never posted a recipe for orange pie. I have never made nor
eaten an orange pie.

I have, however, posted a recipe for Lemon-Orange Cake. The recipe was one of Patricia Wells' and
it is made in a tube pan. Fabulous cake.

I have posted one for "Orange Grove Pie." I often use just the filling for a mousse/souffle-
like dessert:

Orange Grove Pie

5 egg yolks
1/2 C. sugar 2 T. lemon juice 3 T. grated orange rind
2/8 tsp. salt 2 C. whipping cream, whipped 5 oranges

Beat yolks slightly and add 1/2 C. sugar, lemon juice, grated orange rind and salt. Cook over
boiling water, stirring constantly until thick, about 10 minutes. Fold in 2 oranges which have been
cut into pieces and thorougly drained. Cool and fold in half the whipped cream. Chill 12 hours or
longer. Serve with whipped cream and orange pieces.

(This is a pie recipe - if making a pie, put a layer of whipped cream in the bottom of a meringue
pie shell; pour the orange filling on top and then top with the rest of the whipped cream and
garnish with orange sections.)

Anne, are you sure they meant you, specifically, or did they say that "Anne" sent them/posted the
recipe? I only ask because there are a couple of Annes here...a couple of Bobs and a couple of
Steves, too.

Regardless, how about reposting that cake recipe, please? I'm in the mood for citrus these days.

Checking groups.google, the only thing I find was from May of 2003,

Christine Dabney posted:

"Anne Bourget posted a recipe for an orange meringue pie . . . "

She then followed up with this:

"I am replying to my own post. I got curious about the recipe, so I went hunting thru my files. It
wasn't Anne Bourget, but a recipe was posted."

Oh, my goodness! How nice to see your name again, Anne. I think of you every time I look at that old
Pillsbury Best Of The Bake-Off Recipes book! Peace to you and yours. Remembering your car stories,

That sounds really good Nancy! Of course, your recipes always do.

But hey, if we're all gonna start posting Citrus pies... Here's one of our favorites. It's kind of
like the frozen version of yours:

Florida Pie Prep: 35 min Baking: 6-8 min Freezing: 2-3 hrs

Cookie Crumb Crust * 3 eggs, separated
3/4 cup sugar, divided 1 Tbsp EACH Lemon & Orange rind
4/3 cup Lemon juice 1 cup whipping cream

*CRUST: 1 1/4 cup crushed Lemon Sandwich Cookies (=14)
5/4 cup melted butter

Crush cookies and mix in melted butter. Press into a pie plate and bake the crust at 400 F for 6-8
min. Cool thoroughly before filling.

6. Beat egg whites until stiff. Gradually beat in 1/2 cup of the sugar, about 1 Tbsp at a time,
until whites form stiff, glossy peaks.

7. With the same beater, blend egg yolks, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, lemon juice & rinds.

8. Whip cream in a chilled bowl until stiff. Lightly fold together egg white mixture, egg yolk
mixture & cream. Spread in cooled cookie crust.

9. Freeze until firm, 2-3 hours or overnight. Cover pie with foil after the first hour.

10. Before serving, let stand at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.

Try taking a lemon meringue pie recipe (the recipe is on the cornstarch box) and substitute
grapefruit juice for the lemon juice (and a little of the water if you have really juicy
grapefruits.) It makes a very good pie.

I hope I am off the hook, since I did correct myself then, with the followup post.

Hope you are back to join us, Anne! I still make your meatloaf from time to time!

Well...if it was reported that I said that Anne Bourget posted this recipe, then whoever reported
it, didn't see my followup post in which I corrected myself and said that Anne did NOT post that
recipe, that it was someone else.

Anyway, I hope Anne posts some more. She is greatly missed here, at least by me.

In case anyone here hasn't met Anne, I had the pleasure of telling her several (pretty good)
stories, and I have never met anyone for full-throated belly laughs like Anne. It makes one feel
like the best story-teller ever. blacksalt casting her mind back to a certain SF party many years
ago, when evergene made bagna cauda and the selzer squirter was the hit of the party

Look, if the most egregious thing that is ever said about me is that I posted a recipe for orange
pie to rec.food.cooking I think I am doing pretty well.

While I am sure that some people may find orange pie to be delectable, for some reason I do not. I
have pondered why this is so, and cannot come up with a logical explanation. This is all especially
illogical, since I have never even tried an orange pie. I like lemon pie and all sorts of fruit
pies, but the concept of orange pie leaves me cold.

I was just about to confess that one of my favorite fruit pies is rhubarb, and then realized that
99% of this group's readership would probably stone me and chant "rhubarb is a vegetable" while
doing it. But a good rhubarb pie is something to behold.

Years ago I stumbled upon a diner that attracted a large breakfast and lunch crowd from the nearby
businesses. Homemade soups, breads, and desserts. This place was a true find. When it came to
dessert I jumped for joy when I spied rhubarb pie on the menu. My lunch compamion ordered apple. The
pieces of pie arrived and both looked like the real thing: delicate crust, juicy filling, and a bit
of sugar sprinkled over the top crust. My first bite confirmed the high status of the pie maker. It
was just delicious. When I asked my friend if he would like to taste my pie, he hesitated but agreed
to an ever so small bite after which he exclaimed, "That is the worst pie. You don't put vegetables
in a pie." So, no matter how good the pie, if you hate rhubarb nothing is going to sway you from
your convictions on the subject. I asked him what he thought about tomato pies? That shut him up.
Rhubarb may be a vegetable and tomato may be a fruit, but I would rather eat a rhubarb pie for
dessert any day.

A rhubarb apple pie or a rhubarb strawberry pie is a thing of beauty, and a true joy to the
tastebuds.

A tomato pie makes a nice coffee time or mid morning snack.

Alan's Tomato Pie

none

2 deep-dish pie crusts (10 inch) black pepper to taste; see note2 kosher salt to taste 2 1/2-3 lbs 3
pounds medium-sized ripe slicing; tomatoes, see note1 1 large bunch of fresh basil 4 ounces (2 cups)
medium-sharp or sharp cheddar; cheese grated
2/3 cup homemade or best-quality mayonnaise
3/2 juice of 1/2 lemon 2-3 tbsp heavy cream

Preheat oven to 350F

Fit one of the crusts to a pie pan. Sprinkle with pepper (well) SEE NOTE2 and [censored] the pastry all
over with a fork.

Place a layer of tomatoes in the pie pan, sprinkle with a little salt.pepper and add a sparse layer
of fresh basil leaves;

repeat for a second, third, and fourth layer.

Top with the grated cheese.

Thin the mayonnaise with the juice of 1/2 lemon and spread it over the surface.

Quickly add the second pie crust, fit it over the pie and seal the edges by pinching them together.
Cut several slits in the dough to allow steam to escape and brush the surface with the heavy cream.

Bake in a 350 degree oven until the pie is hot all the way through and the crust is golden, about 25
- 30 minutes.

Let rest for 15 minutes before serving. Cut in wedges and garnish each slice with a sprig of
fresh basil.

NOTE1: Peel and seed the tomatoes, and cut into thickish silces. Allow to drain on papper towels a
while to remove excess water/juice.

NOTE2: Try a thin layer of dejon mustard instead of pepper.

Perhaps that those that do not like or would not think of eating an orange pie equate it with a
marmalade. Or perhaps there is some fear of a [censored] pie. Calling your reaction illogical is the exact
reason why some people prefer one thing over another. Subjectivity is not very rational. But so it
will be, always.

But oranges are so sweet! I'd like to make "orange pie" one day using orange curd and probably an
almond crust. Yeah.

It wasn't clear, since Anne didn't specify which post she was referring to. Your post and subsequent
corrective followup were the only things google would cough up that seemed anywhere near. However,
they were so long ago that even that seems unlikely.

Recently? You go offline for several years, then pop back in without a word of explanation!

Are you back for good this time, or was this posting just to tantalize and disappoint?
