Editorial Review:

Product Description'One of my fondest childhood memories is of my aunt's pies cooling on the window sill, while father sat with his deputy . . . wait . . . that might be Opie Taylor. If you love pie, and I can only assume you do, Bubby's pies are the best. I'm eating one right now.'
--Jon Stewart

'I almost ate the book! If my bubby made pies like this, I'd weigh 400 pounds.'
--Billy Crystal

'If a pie cooling in a country breeze is your idea of baking nirvana, with its golden crust and juicy filling beckoning, then the delightful recipes in Bubby's Homemade Pies will guide you toward that goal and, perhaps, initiate the appearance of 'Pie of the Month' at your house. Now wouldn't that be a sweet and welcoming sight?'
--Lisa Yockelson, award-winning author of Baking by Flavor and ChocolateChocolate

'My dad always says, 'Save your fork, there's pie!''
--Kate Douglass, owner of The Spotted Pig

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not the best pies I've ever tasted
I've only tried the fillings (since I cook gluten-free) and the variety of piecrusts in the book probably would be an important feature for those who can use wheat flour. I can only comment on the fillings, after making several fruit pies, all of which have been somewhat disappointing. Several have been watery and though good enough, not as tasty (IMHO) as the recipes I normally use. I did try the lamb cobbler and thought it was excellent, good enough so that I'll probably try other savory pies later. But on the whole, this book is not going to add a lot to the cookbook library of anyone who is already an avid pie-baker.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A mexican review
Good recipes, easy to follow instructions but the quality of the paper of the book is terrible! Even the size of the pages is different. What a pity! So much work of the writer to end up with a bad quality book! I wonder if he checked the first edition or what!. And of course, NO PICTURES AT ALL! just ugly drawings. You know, even the cheapest magazines here in México have a better quality paper than this book. I don't really fell like reading it. I hope you don't have more books with the same bad quality like this.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - You can never know too much about pies
This was purchased as one of the Christmas gifts for my wife. She is an accomplished baker of pies, but I felt that even if she knows 99% of what's included in the book, she might still pick up a hint or new idea by looking through the book. And, she did pick up new ideas as she skimmed through it on Christmas morning. She does continue to refer to the book when contemplating a baking session.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great pie book
I have only made two of the pies in this book so far -- the tarte tatin and the chocolate-mocha pudding banana pie -- but they were both fabulous. I have a lot of baking books and I bake a lot, and I have found the recipes to be simpler than many other pie-book recipes, but always delicious. I highly recommend it.
