[NO-BAKE] RED, WHITE & BLUE BERRY-LEMON PIE WITH AN GOLDEN OREO™ CRUST 2 JULY 2023
Jeanne P sent me this recipe for LEMON-BLUEBERRY PIE; blueberries were BOGO this week, which I took as an omen . . . . . . as were strawberries, so those will be used next; I gave 'em all a vinegar bath. We've been under a HEAT DOME since 27 June, altho we just learned about it on 1 July. Today, the "feels like" temperature is 109F, and a neighbor's pool pump has been screaming since last night (maybe a bearing?), so it's a good day to stay indoors and make something "patriotic." The crust should be made first, so this is the pulsing station . . . In May, when I realized how difficult it was to cut thru ice cream pies, mainly 'cause I was using non-stick pie pans and couldn't press down hard on the knife, I purchased these glass pie pans . . . . . . 7", 8", 9" & 10"; I decided to use the 10" so I'd have room for the STABILIZED WHIPPED CREAM. Also, I sprayed the pan with PAM™, put in a parchment paper round, and sprayed THAT, too. Into the freezer whilst I make the filling . . . Mixing station #1 . . . . . . today I was able to use all my handy-dandy gadgets: the food processor, the scale, the juicer and the grater. Lemon juice . . . (I have plans for the lemon peels, too.) . . . exact measurement . . . . . . adding condensed milk . . .
. . . another handy-dandy gadget, the immersion blender. When I first read the recipe, I said, "I don't have a blender; a food processor isn't the same." Taste Tester #1 reminded me that I have a gadget that has the word blender right in it. Right he is! (And it's a lot easier to clean.)
BLUEberries . . .
Blending . . .
This looks like a smoothie . . . Into the crust, and then into the freezer for an hour . . . I opted for the freezer to get the ice cream texture, rather than the refrigerator, which would give it a custard texture.
