And I think Jezebel got me onto Martha's food photography too.

I was thinking of doing the same thing myself, but it's much easier if you do it and let us know if it was successful! ;-)<br /><br />We have two BIG apple trees in our backyard - but this year the apples have all gone to flying foxes, rainbow lorikeets and possums, because we didn't do anything about the codling moths that have taken over. We dont' mind sharing with the animals, but next year we'll be more vigilant so we can get some too.Linda from the Lentil Institutionhttp://lentilinstitution.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33131521.post-91675723862243742552014-04-01T20:43:09.266+11:002014-04-01T20:43:09.266+11:00Did you see the Martha Stewart AMA on reddit?

I think I shall try ...Wow that really is a monster!<br />I think I shall try this recipe - even though I usually avoid Martha. But if its a tried and true in your household, its gotta be good.<br />To add, the apple pies I usually make use the All Butter Flaky Pastry recipe from Smitten Kitchen. Her method is faultless but the pastry is different in texture due to the lumps of butter being slightly larger and less evenly distributed.<br />And Ive always cooked my filling before it going in the pie case. Dont know if that's standard? <br />My mum always put a very fine layer of semolina on the base of a pie also, to prevent any sogginess in the pastry.Eszhttp://www.em-originals.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33131521.post-51643096012709293962014-04-01T15:19:13.162+11:002014-04-01T15:19:13.162+11:00Wow, that is some pie.
