title: Pie
time: 3:26 AM

The other day, on Tuesday i think it was, I made pie (: I've never really made pie before so it was a bit wierd for me. Usually pie consists of 2 pastries. Shortbread crust for the bottom and puff pastry for the 'lid'. I couldn't be bothered making bot pastries so i just made puff pastry BECAUSE I LOVE IT! Making it was pretty hard because you had to fold in cold butter (lard) consistently so that u get that puffy texture. After i made the pastry, i made the filling which consists of chicken, mushroom, potato and gravy. I made the gravy with chicken stock and sherry. Sherry is like a type of wine like sauce base. Since i didn't have a pie tin, i had to use a rice bowl which was interesting. The top would cook but the sides wouldn't. So when i cooked the top bit, i would get a plate and flit the pie onto it and then cook the sides and the bottom. When the pastry turned golden brownish i took it out and took it to school! (:
