Mince Pie with brandy hard sauce ;D
Mincemeat Pie Gourmet | December 2000
Mincemeat Pie
main ingredients: Raisin, Apple, Brandy, Beef, Currant s
yield: Makes 8 servings
*Suet gives a rich flavor and dense texture to mincemeat. We strongly recommend the Atora brand to avoid the overly beefy flavor you get from poor-quality suet. You may also substitute 4 tablespoons melted butter. *
Ingredients:
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled and finely chopped 2/3 cup golden raisins 2/3 cup dark raisins 2/3 cup dried currants 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar 2 oz shredded beef suet (1/2 cup) 1/4 cup brandy 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lemon zest 2 teaspoons finely grated fresh orange zest 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
For pie Pastry dough 1 large egg, lightly beaten 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
Make mincemeat: Stir together all mincemeat ingredients. Chill in an airtight container at least 3 days.
Make pie: Put a baking sheet in middle of oven and preheat oven to 400°F.
Roll out 1 piece of dough (keep remaining piece chilled) on a lightly floured surface into a 13-inch round and fit into a 9-inch glass pie plate (4-cup capacity). Stir mincemeat, then spoon into shell. Chill pie while rolling out top.
Roll out remaining disk into a 10-inch round on lightly floured surface. Cut into 10 (1-inch-wide) strips with a fluted pastry wheel or a knife. Arrange strips in a lattice pattern on top of filling and trim strips and edge of bottom crust, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Seal edges and crimp decoratively. Brush lattice and edge with some of egg and sprinkle with sugar.
Bake until pastry is golden brown, 50 minutes to 1 hour. (If pastry rim gets too dark, tent with foil.) Cool 2 hours before serving.
