About Pies of All Kinds
Something almost ceremonial happens when a pie cools on the sill, the crust gone amber at the edges, the filling just beginning to set, the whole kitchen wrapped in cinnamon and brown sugar. Whether it's a lattice-topped cherry or a silky pecan dark with molasses, every pie carries the memory of someone's hands pressing dough into the pan. The range of American pies is its own kind of atlas: from the tang of Key lime to the cool cloud of a mile-high meringue, each region lays proud claim to its own.
