10 Ways to Make Your Pie Look Like a Pro’s | Bite Size

[@charlie6923]

As a lefty, it's suuuper nice when you specify "dominant" and "non-dominant" hand. Thank you!

[@djtblizzle]

Amen!

[@gal88b]

How can one person can be a top level pro pastry chef, an incredible teacher and also great at youtube?

[@Justin-TPG]

What I really wanted to see at the end of this was how they look baked. I can imagine, but seeing them ready to eat is far more appetising.

[@kyleholliday9125]

Yes I have been waiting for more episodes with Erin she is the only reason I watch food52

[@quaerensdeum]

Same! Though Sohla is growing on me also!

[@sfxchris96]

Hmm.. That’s very strange... I bet its because she’s the only white one 😂😂😂

[@swatson4016]

Her, Rick and Sohla!

[@sundawg911]

These vids relax me. I am not a big baker but I love the vibe and positive energy Erin brings. She is so smart and passionate. Enjoy watching.

[@DougPettey-yg6dq]

Knowledge is power! Enthusiasm is fuel! Accessibility is crucial! Thank you for all three.

[@jaq_granda]

never not an amazing video when erin is involved!

[@teehee664]

I absolutely love the positive energy that Erin has! Also, a macaron episode of bake it up a notch would be amazing because I've always been intimidated by them.

[@joeywd2885]

Always makes me smile and brightens my day when I see an email from Erin Food 52 in my email. I know I am going to learn something awesome and I will be able to use what I learn. Love these decorative pie crust ideas. Thank you Erin, you ROCK GIRL! : )

[@food52]

Always makes us smile when people are excited about our content -- so thank YOU, too, Joey!

[@cindyglass5827]

ERIN, You are such a SWEET HEART !! ... Just love your Personality, Positivity & Admire your Passion for Baking - specifically "All things Pie" : ) Amazzzing episode btw ! ... I only knew of "3" of these techniques & now I know of "10" ... My new Fav is the PEARL : ) Thank-you !! I have also improved my Pie Crust taste (ie) flakiness - All b/c of You ! Take Care & All the Best ! : )

[@kathleenbatykefer665]

Love these mini lessons! You are a fabulous teacher!

[@rveil12]

I loved this video! The best part of the video technique is that you start each pie with a close-up of the crimping, and then you move on to the explanation. It's so much clearer to me to see what we're trying to achieve before you start the explanation. It's strawberry-rhubarb season, and I've got a lot of 5" pies to make for friends and neighbors. All these different ideas will keep me from getting bored. Though I have ceramic pie weights, for the "Pearl Crimp," I'll use the stylus pen from my iPad. I have no hope of being able to hang on to one small pie weight, but the 6"-long stylus will be easy for me to handle.

[@debrariley2057]

We had a sit com in the 1970’s about a father and son called Stepoe & Son. He used his false teeth to crimp the edge of a pie..... !....I think I have only seen it once but remains with me every time I crimp a pie.... (NOT EVER using false teeth). Another lovely episode... thank you.

[@domatood]

she is just lovely, all the best hun

[@carolynbaron9111]

I’ve been baking pies for decades and am so grateful to learn these crimping tips! They’re just gorgeous. Erin’s videos really brighten my day, so I’ve subscribed and look forward to seeing her regularly.

[@idasvensson9998]

I would love to see Erin teach us all about yeasted doughnuts! :D

[@granados69ng44]

I'm here for Erin, Rick and Sohla 😊 gotta love them 🥰

[@swatson4016]

Agreed!

[@mariateresacastrocardenas6565]

All your videos are my favourites

[@dianethompson6363]

Just bought the pie cookbook so I can bake more of your pie recipes!

[@pattiewheeler1074]

I'm not even a baker, but I can watch and rewatch Erin's videos. Maybe some day... :-)

[@donaharrisburg5469]

I’m always thrilled when you give presentations, instructions etc. I love watching your vids. you are so informative. Happy Easter to you and yours. Ty for everything. 😊😊💫💫💫💫💫. Watching now.

[@mc05266]

I am not sure if I want Erin to teach me this stuff or I just want her to make them for me! But I LOVE watching these videos! She is a great teacher!

[@Laurelswartz100]

WOW! Thank you soooo much. You explain and demonstrate everything slowly and carefully.

[@weezercolo886]

Rope crimp is my favorite. I use pinky fingers to make a smaller, tighter rope. Or use the V method and then go back and "twist" each V to the side. At times I can whip through 3 or 4 pies and get perfect edges. Other times I have to repeat it 3 or 4 times and it still doesn't look right. Then I just get out the mini leaf cookie cutters and call it a day 😊

[@judysavin9858]

I would love to see trips and tricks with pre-made pie crusts as I use them as a time-saver and actually like how they taste. In particular, I would like to know how to best blind bake suing the pre-made dough and how to crimp when there isn’t quite enough dough. By the way, I loved these crimping ideas!!!

[@susanmiller2890]

Just found your video. It's wonderful. I love to bake pies and am always in search of new ideas.

[@GregCurtin45]

In a future pie episode I would love to see a detailed explanation of making a braided rope crust (that doesn't just turn into a log after baking) and a fine leaf spiral top for a double crust pie (stamping out 50+ pastry leaves and how to place them on the pie filling) - please and thank you.

[@alicemharris9794]

Thanks, I have a real need for this episodes.

[@Maistra13]

Thank you so much for this quick tutorial! I already make lots of pies and am happy with my flavor and texture results, but it’s time to up my presentation game. These tips are so easy and I can’t wait to try them and get classy polished pies!

[@nadaoconnell5285]

Love all your crimping ,I did two this morning !

[@xKellogsx]

Erin is awesome. Thanks for being so fun to watch. Would love to see the results of these pies being baked.

[@kathygaus6606]

I bake pies all the ti.e for farmers market and customers ty for sharing these

[@kelseydalziel3514]

As I sat with a boring pie crust in front of me, the scallop idea had me exclaim "THAT'S THE ONE!" I ended up using my long nails instead of the knife, and it went much faster. Thank you so much for this. I'm so excited for my beautiful scalloped-edged pecan pie!

[@kimberlyjoymeier8677]

You’re enthusiasm is wonderful!

[@christithayer4108]

This was fascinating! I'm one of those people who doesn't really eat pie but I love to make them. I love making them beautiful. This is going to be fun!

[@eileenmurphy2019]

I just got a copy of The Book on Pie. I have been baking for more than 60 years and plagued by soggy bottoms. I am hoping to find the cure! Love your content and your personality!

[@joceeisawesome]

You are an icon and we love you 😭♥️🥧

[@debrathornley2974]

Just saw this 😂 Omg! You answered my question! Thanks! Always love seeing you. Hope things are going great for you 🥰

[@christinawebb3016]

I use a hand grated with frozen butter when making pie crust or biscuits. It works great.

[@cosmicpr2707]

Love this video. So many neat ways to crimp. I can't wait to try these. Your video was the first to tell me to not only to push in but also to push down on the plate.

[@meridenewoodson9950]

I really enjoy your bite-size episode. I don't always have time to watch a full episode. It is also easier to remember details in the short segments.

[@MichelleDavis-n7p]

Thank you, thank you! I had my pie crust end in a pool of butter after using your method (I used it for empanadas). I also made a chicken pot pie and wondered if the par baking would be appropriate. Both questions answered watching this vid today. I really enjoy watching your videos, you remind me of my favorite boss ever :) thank you again

[@adedow1333]

Will you do an episode of tea loaves? I mean like the banana/pumpkin/zucchini bread situation. Mine never quite seem done and are a bit heavy, but I follow the recipes exactly. It's super frustrating. Also will you discuss add-ons such as chocolate and nuts? They affect the bake and I'm not sure how to maintain control. You do such a good job of explaining the rules and how to break them and riff to make the bake mine.

[@food52]

Stay tuned! We’ve been talking about doing something like that! In the meantime, check out this pound cake video, which has some tips that might come in handy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXWpmaJtgMZ3mLs

[@loopylou5841]

I would love to see that too. Good idea. Thank you

[@Jennifr1966]

You did such a lovely job on this. I wish I had your baking rack! So lovely! I hope you have other videos. About to search!

[@fatladyfarmer2025]

Love your book. You have really helped me improve my crust game. Thank you thank you!

[@kellyhubbard3750]

Thanks so much I will definitely try some of these out!

[@ilmirakrasnova9658]

Incredible teacher ❤ Thank you!

[@Its_me--Boo_Radley]

I love these little creative tutorials. I'll be sure to try some of these crimps that are new to me. I still think back to the video you did where you briefly discussed "swamp pie". I'd love more discussion about swamp pie since I can't seem to find much information about it elsewhere.

[@gloriashaeffer9117]

Erin is fantastic all the episodes I can watch will keep me coming back !!!

[@RuthannAmarteifio]

Wow ----I had no idea! These are great----Thank you!!

[@catsanchez5749]

Erin is awesome 😀❤️ She is the perfect teacher😀❤️

[@Peter89133]

Super Job!! IF I knew what I didn't know I would ask questions. Watching informs me of both the questions I didn't know to ask and the delightful answers. Please keep them coming.

[@clenram]

Good instructions...can't wait to try!

[@krokodilgena2240]

THANK YOU!! I love all of these videos. Keep them coming!!!

[@pookeyb1]

This is a great video, and you are a excellent teacher, thank you so much.

Another great video from the best teacher on You Tube! Can you please share tips on re-warming finished pies? Thank you!

[@drummerlovesbookworm9738]

Erin is awesome.

[@jomercer21113]

I use a thin bamboo skewer for the finger scallop scallop

[@conniegage2141]

Erin, you put all the chefs to shame. This video greatly inspired me. Simple and beautiful pie crust edges.

[@zzzzipy12]

I just found you a few days ago! You are a delight & a very talented baker! ❤️

[@cash1301]

Loved this video💖 be blessed🙏🌹💖

[@MamalindasCooking]

Hi it's my first time watching you pie decoration I'm into making pie for my first time I want to do them for the Christmas we call them coconut tarts in the Islands.I was happy to see the different ways u styled your dough very impressive I'm going to practise them until I get it right . I have a problem with shaping my pie so after seeing ur video today I 've learn a thing r 2 thank you so much wish me luck in my Christmas tarts.

[@christynelson5394]

Love this! You and your Book On Pie are my favorite.

[@swatson4016]

Erin, two questions for a future episode. Are you using any cooking spray or butter to prep the pie dish before the dough is added? Also, are you applying an egg wash to the dough edges before the pie goes in the oven?

[@gailannlawton6587]

I just found you and have one comment “you are awesome”!!!

[@user-22-]

Awesome video❗️ I manage to make a beautifully fluted edge on my crust, only to have the pattern either shrink & distort or just lose the pretty pattern (if pressed into dough) after baking & puffing up. 😔

[@despinapavlaki6286]

Love this woman!

[@chophappy]

Wow you make it look so easy! I need to try this out for myself! Guess I need to make a pie now haha

[@TheLilacStar]

Erin, you're just such a joy to watch. Just wanted you to know. We're also supposed to be best friends. I'm an awesome taste tester!

[@miriamhappybaking9871]

YAYY LOVE LOVE LOVE😊🎀

[@quaerensdeum]

I thought she had a French manicure for a second and was like "no! Don't go fancy on us!", and then I saw it was just flour and it was very relatable.

[@food52]

You don’t think gold croissant buttons count as fancy? 😋 Thanks for watching, quaerensdeum!

[@quaerensdeum]

@@food52❤ That was just the perfect combo of class and food geekery we have come to expect from Erin.

[@rasputanrasputan1380]

So cool 😎

[@ReneeXikis]

This vid is amaz!

[@joyherting3705]

Loved it! More please. Tasty bite

[@mominetti]

Omg, Erin, you have a tiny witch on a broomstick on your shirt, right next to your stars tattoo (your right side).😉

[@carolinacarter7730]

you are awesome!

[@gailgaffin]

Nice

[@brentfrank7012]

Very kool

[@pizzaicecreamOG]

[@bmscott130]

[@RobertaPeck]

Now that you have nearly covered all things traditional pastry in your videos.I would like to see you teaching f healthy food preparation like Dr.Joel Fuhrman teaches about in his best seller"Eat for Life,,since you are one of the best teachers on KZbin.

[@marinecaccia8694]

Nice video ! I'm just wondering what is the kind of mold that you use (brand / size / height) Thanks !

[@boss-ih6uk]

Yay🎉

[@dyllanmecham9962]

Hey Erin! Would you do an episode on caramel?
