The Little Book of Pies

  • Sweet and Savoury Pies and Tarts For All Year Round

Want to know how to make a pie? This little book of pie recipes packs a big punch in flavour and baking know-how.

Comprehensive guidelines show how to make pastry - shortcrust, rough puff, tartlet and flaky; how to crimp, lattice or plait your pie for a perfect finish; and how to store and reheat your pies so that not a crumb of your pie making goes to waste.

Savoury recipes include classics like Steak & Guinness Pie and Chicken, Leek & Bacon; seasonal treats like Waldorf Salad, Minute Picnic Pasties and Porky Pies; plus Mediterranean-inspired twists such as Italian Sausage & Pesto, French Onion Soup Pie, Lamb, Lemon & Oregano and Turkish Breakfast Pie.

Indulgent sweet pie and tartlet recipes include classic Twin Peaks Cherry and Apple pies plus unique Honey & Walnut 3-Bite Pies and Chocolate, Date & Ginger Tart.

Pies rule! They look good, taste good, and pie-maker Marika Gauci (who also runs the only Pie making workshops in London) shows just how to get glorious golden pies baking in your oven.
