CHEF JOHN'S PEACH PIE

Above and beyond beautiful, this lattice design is also very practical. When you're making pie with something like peaches, the relatively open top allows for lots of moisture to evaporate, which helps prevent the dreaded 'watery-pie syndrome.' That's also the reason we boil the excess juices down to a syrup.

Time 2h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds fresh freestone peaches, peeled and sliced
1 cup white sugar, divided
1 tiny pinch salt
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1 pastry for a 10-inch double crust pie
1 ½ tablespoons butter, cut into tiny pieces
1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream, or to taste
1 tablespoon white sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Stir peaches, 1/2 cup sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Let sit for 20 to 30 minutes. Strain accumulated juices into a saucepan and return strained peaches to bowl.
  • Bring juices in saucepan to a boil; reduce heat to medium-high, and cook until mixture thickens to a syrup, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Whisk 1/2 cup sugar, flour, and cornstarch together in a bowl. Stir lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon into peaches; add flour mixture and toss to coat. Pour peach syrup over peach mixture and stir.
  • Roll out half the pastry to fit a 10-inch pie plate. Place bottom crust in pie plate. Pour peach filling into pie shell, tap pie plate against a surface to settle filling, and dot with butter.
  • Roll remaining crust into an 11-inch circle and cut into 1-inch strips using a paring knife or pastry wheel.
  • Lay 5 strips of pie crust over the top of the pie. Weave remaining pastry dough strips through to form a lattice top. Fold the ends of the lattice strips under the bottom crust and crimp the crust. Brush cream over the top and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until browned and bubbling, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool completely before slicing.

CHEF JOHN'S PEACH BLACKBERRY FLOGNARDE



Chef John's Peach Blackberry Flognarde image

I was looking around for a name for this unusual clafoutis-like combination of peaches, blackberries, thyme, and black pepper. I saw an article that said in France a clafoutis that uses fruit other than cherries is called a flognarde. I enjoy saying flognarde so much that I think even if this recipe hadn't come out as well as it did I would still make it regularly, just to say 'flognarde'.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe peaches and blackberries for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh berries, you can use frozen berries that have been thawed.
  • Be sure to grease the baking dish well to prevent the flognarde from sticking.
  • Don't overmix the batter, as this will result in a tough flognarde.
  • Bake the flognarde until it is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Serve the flognarde warm with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

Conclusion:

Chef John's Peach Blackberry Flognarde is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh summer fruit and is sure to be a hit with family and friends.
