How to cook deliciously - Blueberry Pie
1. Stage
In a saucepan over medium heat, cook 2 cups blueberries with lemon juice and zest, sugar, salt, and nutmeg for 5 minutes.
2. Stage
In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water, then add to the same saucepan and cook 1 minute more. Remove from heat and add remaining 3 cups blueberries. Let cool while rolling out pie crust.
3. Stage
Preheat oven to 400° with a large baking sheet on middle rack. Take one batch of pie crust out of the fridge and let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to make it easier to roll out.
4. Stage
Lightly flour a clean work surface and roll pie crust into a 13” circle. Place crust over a shallow 9” pie plate and lightly press it in making sure the dough has minimal gaps between the pan. Trim crust to a 1” overhang, then tuck dough under itself and crimp crust.
5. Stage
Roll second disc of pie crust on a lightly floured surface into a 10” circle. Cut into 1 ½” thick strips.
6. Stage
Pour blueberry filling into pie crust and place pie crust strips into a lattice over filling. Trim ends as needed and press into bottom crust. Place into freezer for 15 minutes.
7. Stage
Brush crust with egg wash and sprinkle with Demerara sugar. Place on preheated baking sheet and bake until golden and filling is bubbly, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool 2 hours before slicing.
