blueberry pie

Pie. I love pie. I made this blueberry pie for my mother in law, http://keyingredient.com/recipes/100600/blueberry-pie/ It's the recipe from the TV show by the Cook's Illustrated people. I didn't make the crust as specified, because it's really hard to buy just a 1/2 cup of vodka and my MIL doesn't like having alcohol in the house. I used three bags of the wild Oregon frozen blueberries from Trader Joe's and added a little nutmeg. I think a little ginger might have been better, but the spice wasn't very noticeable against the explosion of blueberry.

Last Thanksgiving I made a cherry pie (also with apple for thickener) lightly spiced with cinnamon/ginger/nutmeg/cloves. It was really good. I may add an apple to all my fruit pies in the future.
