If you know me, you’ll know how delighted I was to discover Nothing In the House. Yes, that’s right. A blog devoted entirely to pie. I’ve never put egg into crust before, but I’ll bet it makes the pastry easier to handle…
I’ve been cheating on pie with cobbler and ice cream this summer. With the help of my friend Elizabeth, I did finally figure out some things about tomato pie, which has been a personal crusade ever since I lived in Mississippi, whose sweet July bounties reminded me that tomatoes were fruit. There should be a mayonnaise topping. Duke’s is the best mayonnaise. Also: I doubt anyone with a summer soul could make the drive between the Ocoee River and Atlanta without stopping, at least once, to buy tomatoes.
