8. Pie Baking Tips! Some recipes call for a baked pie shell. The filling is added later. If you bake the pie shell before filling it, pierce the bottom with a form about every 1 inch to prevent the crust from bubbling up while baking.

9. Pie Baking Tips! Two Crusted Pie - Make several small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape

13. M E R I N G U E A foam made of beaten egg whites and sugar, used for desserts.

16. Beating Egg Whites Egg whites can go through five stages when beaten depending upon the end result needed. Do NOT stop the mixer in between any of them; keep going until you reach your final stage because beaten egg whites deflate when they sit. Beaten egg whites or meringue are usually folded into other ingredients.folded Sugar is often added and it is then called a meringue meringue

17. Do not overbeat the egg whites; if they are beaten too stiff, there is no more stretch left for them to rise when baked -- some or will pop during the whipping stage and will collapse. Do not underbeat the egg whites. If not beaten enough, they can't hold the amount of air necessary for a lift. Both result in a flat recipe, such as a cake.

21. Note! The tiniest bit of fat or egg yolk will wreck a meringue, as fat interferes with the formation of good foam.

23. Egg Wash Egg yolk or egg white mixed with a small amount of water or milk. It's brushed over breads, pastry and other baked goods before baking to give them color and gloss.
