Aprašymas

A love letter written in pie crust to every state in the union--a delicious portrait of the country with more than 50 recipes for extraordinary pies that taste just like home.

There's nothing quite so American as a slice of pie. That's what Stacey Mei Yan Fong learned growing up in Singapore and Hong Kong, watching movies set in the United States and dreaming about taking a road trip from coast to coast, stopping at diners along the way. After college in Savannah and a decade as a fashion designer, Stacey turned her passion for home baking into an ode to her chosen home: honoring the people, places, and flavors that made her love this country with a pie for each state.

Each pie is an impressive, whimsical tribute that encapsulates a state's unique flavors and honors its culture.
- For South Dakota, Stacey researched Indigenous ingredients with a Sioux nation chef to create her Wild Rice Pudding Pie.
- For Illinois, she created a Deep Dish Pumpkin Pie.
- For Nevada, she brought a Las Vegas all-you-can-eat-buffet into eight extraordinary savory and sweet slices.

And there are plenty of crowd pleasers, such as:
- Kentucky's Derby Pie with Blackberry Sauce
- Mississippi Mud Pie
- Idaho's Mashed Potato Pie with Hash Brown Crust and Scallop Potato Topping
- Georgia's Sweet Tea Peach Pie with Pecan Crumble
- North Dakota's Tater Tot Hot Dish Pie

With bonus pies to honor Stacey's trajectory from Southeast Asia to her Brooklyn home, like:
- A Pandan Custard Pie for her birthplace of Singapore
- A Kope Jahe Pie in honor of her childhood in Indonesia
- A Honey Peach Pie for her time at the Savannah College of Art and Design
- And a Bagel Order Pie to celebrate her new forever New York City home

Every pie is an opportunity to celebrate-or defend your home state's honor. Bake your way through and you'll taste the full range of flavors that America has to offer.

With recipes organized like the all-American roadtrip we've all wanted to complete, this book is a journey through the wonders of pie for bakers of all skill levels-and the story of one extraordinary woman who chose to make this place her home.
