CRANBERRY BRIE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a small saucepan, combine cranberries, brown sugar, orange juice, flour and vinegar. Cook over medium heat until berries pop, about 15 minutes., Meanwhile, unroll crust into a 9-in. metal pie plate; flute edges. Sprinkle with cheese; bake 8 minutes or until cheese begins to melt. Reduce oven setting to 350°., Remove cranberry mixture from heat; stir in vanilla. Pour into crust. Dot with butter., For topping, in a small bowl, combine flour and brown sugar; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over filling. , Bake 30-35 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly (cover edges with foil during the last 20 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary). Serve warm or at room temperature. Refrigerate leftovers.

BRIE AND ARTICHOKE CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Prepare the artichoke bottoms, and let them stand in their cooking liquid until ready to use. Drain and scoop away the fuzzy choke from each. Cut the artichoke bottoms into 1/4-inch-thick slices. There should be about 1 cup. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Use a springform pan, 10 by 2 inches, with a removable bottom. Line the bottom and sides of the pan with wide aluminum foil, and brush all over with melted butter. Set aside.
• Rinse the spinach well. Pull or cut off and discard any tough stems; discard blemished leaves. Drain the spinach well. There should be about 3 cups loosely packed.
• In a saucepan, bring to a boil enough water to cover the spinach when it is added. Add the spinach, stirring it into the water. Cook about 1 minute or until wilted. Drain well. Squeeze to extract excess liquid. There should be about 1/2 cup. Chop the spinach, and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a skillet, and add the onion and garlic. Add the spinach and toss to blend.
• Break the eggs into a mixing bowl, and beat well. Beat in the cream and milk. Add the nutmeg, salt and pepper. Add the spinach mixture and blend.
• If a whole cooked potato is used, peel it and put it through a food mill or potato ricer. There should be about 1/2 cup. Add the mashed potato to the custard, and blend evenly. Pour the custard into the prepared pan, and place it in the oven. Bake 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, trim off and discard the tough outer coating from the Brie. Cut the cheese lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick wedges.
• Remove the pan from the oven, and sprinkle the artichoke pieces evenly over the top. Lay the strips of Brie flat in a circle like the spokes of a wheel around the top of the custard. Sprinkle the top with parsley, and return the pan to the oven. Bake 45 minutes or until a cake tester or thin skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the pie stand for 10 minutes before unmolding.
• To unmold, remove the circle of metal from around the pie. Pull down the foil. You may cut the pie into 8 wedges and serve it on plates directly from the kitchen. Or if you wish to display it, place a round plate over the top of the pie. Invert the pie onto this plate, remove the foil, and then place a serving plate over the bottom of the pie. Repeat the procedure, turning the pie right-side-up. Serve cut into 8 wedges with the tomato sauce on the side.

SALMON AND BRIE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200c.
• Lay 1 sheet of pastry in pie dish, prick with a fork, cover with baking paper and then pour over a layer of dried beans, rice or lentils and bake in the oven for about 12 minutes. Remove, remove the foil and filling (and discard or save for your next pie.).
• Meanwhile, melt the butter, add the diced onion and cook until softened but not coloured. Add the flour and cook, stirring for about a minute. Add the milk and whisk until smooth and thickened.
• Remove from the heat and add in the lemon juice, salmon, brie, green onion, dill leaves and pepper (I tasted here and found it didn't need any salt).
• Brush a little milk around the edge of the pastry bottom, pop on the top and trim to fit your pie dish. Brush more milk across the top. Prick a few holes in the top pastry to allow steam to escape.
• Cook for 10 minutes at 200c then reduce the oven temp to 180c and cook a further 20 minutes or until golden brown.
• We ate ours served with a leafy grean salad dressed with lemon infused olive oil and white wine vinegar.

BRIE PIE (TOURTE AU BRIE)

Steps:

• The day before, combine flour, butter and a little water to make the dough for the pie crust. Refrigerate overnight (To save time, I sometimes omit this step and use a store-bought crust).
• Divide the dough into 2 parts, bearing in mind that the bottom crust requires more dough than the top. Roll out the dough (again, I omit this step when using a store-bought crust). Butter a pie plate or line with parchment paper, then place bottom crust in pie plate.
• Remove the crusts from the cheeses, then slice the cheeses. Cover the bottom of the pie crust with the cheese slices, then sprinkle with nutmeg.
• Beat 1 egg together with the liquid cream and pour over the brie slices.
• Cover with the top pie crust, carefully sealing the edges and cutting a few small slits in the top crust.
• Beat remaining egg together with a dash of salt and brush over top crust to make it golden brown during baking.
• Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 25 minutes. Serve warm with a green salad.

BAKED BRIE WITH PEACH PIE JAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Open tube of crescent rolls careful not to separate into individual rolls. Close the seams by applying pressure to them. Place small round of brie in center of dough. Seal long ends on top of brie. When sealing sides it wil be necessary to trim corners. The dough is very forgiving, so if a seam should fall apart just apply pressure and close. Once sides are sealed you can mold to brie by shaping with your hands. Place on cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown. While hot, pour Peach generously on top and sprinkle with chopped pecans. Serve either with crackers or alone.
