Stay calm and pumpkin on. This recipe for cherry pie comes from 1808. However, an identical recipe can be found in The Frugal Housewife (1803). Sometime around the late 18th/early 19th century the practice of carving turnips made it’s way to the U.S. with Irish and Scottish immigrants. It wasn’t until the mid 1800s that carving pumpkins, which is an American tradition, became popular. While the tradition began to ward off evil spirits on Halloween it quickly became a fun activity for children & by the turn of the 20th century the practice was already seen as more fun than spiritual.

Puff Paste (American Cookery, Amelia Simmons, 1796, Hartford, Connecticut)
2 1/2 cups of flour
1 cup of cold, salted butter. Cut into cubes
2 large eggs, whisked
Combine your flour and butter using either a pastry cutter or a knife and fork. Work the butter into the flour until small, pea size beads of butter are spread throughout the flour. Add in the whisked eggs. Work into a dough with your hands. Cut into 2 halves and roll each half out onto a well floured surface. This recipe is enough to make a top and bottom crust.
* Most puff paste recipes from the 18th and early 19th centuries are not comparable to a modern puff paste, but are rather like a regular pie crust.
To Make a Cherry Pie (The New-England cookery, 1808, Lucy Emerson, Montpelier, Vermont)
2 cups of de-pitted cherries
0.5 cups of red currants (consider switching this up with cranberries!)
0.5 cups of sugar, divided in half
A top and bottom pie paste
Lay a pie paste on the bottom of a pie pan. Throw sugar over your bottom crust. Lay over it your cherries and currants mixed up well. Throw over it the remaining half of your sugar. Put on a top crust. Bake in a 350 degree oven for approximately 40 minutes, or until the crust is firm and cooked. Allow the pie to settle for at least 20 minutes before serving.
Happy Halloween. Stay awesome.
Fighting my way through a respiratory infection right now and this video is a balm to my soul

Thatβs the biggest hand pie Iβve ever seen
Can the brandy be drunk or reused?
Happy All Hallow's Eve Ron and Justine π»ππ¬
Funny, that skeleton needs to eat a couple of cherry pies, π
That pie looked delicious and that skeleton certainly seemed friendly enough. Happy Halloween!
Looks yummy π
Looks delicious Justine
I am amazed at your skill with Dutch oven cooking! A perfectly baked cherry pie. It's beautiful! β€
πcute video. I enjoyed it.
Wow that presentation was a 10/10. Looks amazing!
Oh Justine, I was just thinking of making a cherry pie! Just have to have coffee and my cute Justine fix. Cee, from the little cottage in ireland ππππππ
George Washingtonβs favorite drink was the brandy leftover from preserving cherries. Pie looks delicious, Iβll try it!
Mr. Skeleton could have used that pie a little earlier! π Looks delicious!
Good morning

Awe thank you Justine for all you do. I love this channel with so much doom and gloom in the world you cheer me up so all the way too Scotland π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ
Justine your channel has really inspired me to make more interesting dishes at home. Man if people cooked without all the modern conveniences of today I can surely get my butt in the kitchen and cook! πβ€
That crust looks as pretty as you do, Justine! Love your cabin decorπ»ππ» and I see you and Ron have a new? houseguest. Be blessed and I'll catch you later in the Chew and Chat! xoxo
Surprising you didnt show ashes all over the pie which she certainly spread all over the damn thing!π€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈππ
Okay, Iβm cracking up over the interactive skeleton, even though it is 21st-century plastic! Justine, since you referenced fruit being preserved in either brandy or sugar, it would be interesting to see the how-toβs for different methods of fruit preservation . . . hmm, or just food preservation in general, in future videos. π
Surprised you didn't need more sugar. Perhaps the brandy was sweetened to preserve them.
