MYSTERY INGREDIENT WILD BLUEBERRY PIE
I came up with this tasty twist on a classic blueberry pie recipe when I was searching the spice cupboard for nutmeg. My family loved it so much that I made two more pies the next day! Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Press 1 pie crust pastry into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan.
- Stir blueberries, sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a large bowl. Add almond extract; stir to coat. Pour blueberry mixture into the prepared pie crust. Dot the blueberry mixture with butter pieces. Top with second pie crust, crimping the two crusts together. Brush top crust with milk. Make a few incisions with a knife into the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking. Wrap the edges of the pie with aluminum foil to avoid burning.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil, and continue baking until blueberry filling is bubbling and crust is browned, 20 to 25 more minutes. Cool before serving.

Steps:
- Mix 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 tablespoons sugar, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl. Drop in 7 tablespoons butter and the shortening. Using your hands, a fork, a pastry blender, or two knives, work butter and shortening into the flour mixture until it resembles cornmeal with some pea-size pieces.
- Using a fork, quickly stir in 1/2 cup very cold water. Turn chunks of dough and crumbs onto a clean surface. Knead just until dough starts to hold together, 5 to 10 times. Divide dough in half and pat each half into a 6-in. disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill 15 minutes or up to overnight.
- Put an oven rack on the lowest rung. Preheat oven to 375°. Unwrap one disk of dough and put on a floured surface. Roll into a 12-in. circle (about 1/8-in. thick), turning 90° after each pass of the rolling pin to keep it from sticking. Transfer to a 9-in. pie pan, letting the dough fall into place (if you push or stretch it into place, it will shrink back when baked). Trim dough edges to 1/4 inches past rim of pie pan. Cover with plastic wrap and chill 15 minutes. Meanwhile, roll out second disk into an 11-in. circle. Cut into ten 1-in.-wide strips. Transfer to a baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and chill 15 minutes.
- While crusts chill, mix remaining flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, the brown sugar, tapioca, remaining salt, the cinnamon, pepper, nutmeg, and cloves in a bowl. Add blueberries and lemon juice; toss. Taste and add more granulated sugar (up to 1/4 cup), if you like. Pour berry mixture into crust and dot with remaining butter.
- To weave a lattice crust, lay 5 strips of pie dough vertically across pie, spacing evenly. Take the top of every other strip and fold it back halfway. Lay a strip horizontally across center of pie, next to folds of vertical strips. Unfold vertical strips back over horizontal strip. Fold back vertical strips that were left flat last time, and repeat with a second horizontal strip, placing it above first strip (away from you). Repeat with a third horizontal strip above second. Repeat this process on lower half of pie, using remaining 2 strips of dough.
- Fold bottom crust edge up over top crust and crimp edges together. Bake until crust is browned and filling is bubbling in the center, 60 to 75 minutes. Cover edge with strips of foil if browning too quickly. Let cool until bottom of pie pan is room temperature.

SPICED BLUEBERRY JAMMIN'

Steps:
- For the jam: Place blueberries in saucepan over medium-low heat. Sprinkle with pectin followed by the anise, nutmeg, lemon juice and vinegar. Once liquid starts to gather in bottom of pan, increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Lower heat slightly and boil gently for five minutes occasionally mashing mixture. Mash in sugar, add the water and return to a boil for 1 minute. You just made jam. Cool, jar, refrigerate and enjoy within 2 weeks. Or, move to the preserving phase. Preserving the jam: Thoroughly wash all hardware in hot soapy water. Then pile everything (excluding the jar lids) into the pot. Cover with hot water by at least 1-inch and bring to a boil and maintain for 10 full minutes to sterilize. Turn off the heat, wait 5 minutes then add the lids (waiting will insure that the sealing compound does not melt). Leave all hardware in the pot until you're ready to can.
- Remove the ladle, tongs, funnel and other tools from the pot, (careful please, it's hot in there) to a clean towel or paper towels. Using the jar tongs, remove and drain the jars, placing them on the towel/paper towel surface. (Avoid rock or metal surfaces which could result in thermal shock and breakage.)
- Place the funnel in the first jar (pick it up by the ring, avoiding the sterile interior.) Use the ladle to fill each jar just to the bottom of the funnel, about 1/3-inch from the bottom of the jar threads. This "headspace" is necessary for the jars to seal during processing.
- Wipe the jar rims with a moist paper towel, checking for any cracks or irregularities as you go. Use the magnetized device of your choice to position lids on each jar. Screw the rings on finger tight. (Remember, the rings don't seal the jars they only hold the lids in place. Heat will drive out the headspace air, which when cooled will create a vacuum, thus sealing the jars)
- Return the jars to the pot being certain that they don't touch the bottom of the pot or each other. (If you don't have a jar rack, try a round cake rack, or metal mesh basket. Even a folded kitchen towel on the pot bottom will do in a pinch.) Add additional water if necessary to cover the jars by at least an inch, and bring to a hard boil over high heat according to the table below. (Be sure not to start your timer until a true boil is reached. The headroom air may bubble out of the jars before a boil is reached. Don't be fooled.)
- Processing times: Within 1,000 feet of sea level: 5 minutes 1,000 - 3,000 feet above sea level: 10 minutes 3,001- 6,000 feet above sea level: 15 minutes 6,000 - 8,000 feet above sea level: 20 minutes Above 8,000 feet: wait until you're back down at base camp.

Tips:
- Use fresh blueberries: Fresh blueberries are the best choice for this pie, as they have the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make it tough. Mix it just until it comes together and is no longer sticky.
- Chill the dough before rolling it out: Chilling the dough will make it easier to roll out and prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
- Use a light hand when rolling out the dough: Don't press down too hard on the dough when you're rolling it out. This will make it tough.
- Trim the edges of the dough: Before you fill the pie, trim the edges of the dough so that they're even. This will help the pie seal properly.
- Brush the edges of the dough with egg wash: Before you bake the pie, brush the edges of the dough with egg wash. This will help them brown and give the pie a nice shine.
- Serve the pie warm or at room temperature: Blueberry pie is best served warm or at room temperature. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
This spiced blueberry pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet blueberries, warm spices, and flaky crust is sure to please everyone. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect blueberry pie every time.
