Hello there,
I would like the recipe for Black and Blueberry Pie from the last issue. The magazine was pulled yesterday from the shelves. TIA! ▼
WHAAAA!!!!!! I don't have that issue YET___but that sure sounds interesting!!!!
Anybody out there with Issue #64------???????? Blackberries are at a premium here when available---maybe about a week per year. I used to pick them by the baskets when a child on the farm in New Hampshire---my Granny made the BEST blackberry pies ever!!! I must add--blueberries were prevalent on the farm as well---I miss those days!!!

Quote: Think I'm missing a couple C@H issues, too, Roxanne. Can anyone tell me what was on the cover of issues 63 and 64?? Jean and PJ, both your recipes sound delicious! Since last Saturday, berries here have been sinfully cheap ($1 a QUART for blue, black, red and black rasp's, boysen, straw...every berry out there) and intensively, naturally sweet! I cannot recall ever seeing any berry so inexpensive, not even when we go to the "pick-your-own" farms. Not that this is a complaint of any kind...we've been busy baking, freezing, canning, and eating them, of course! Taking advantage of them while they are out. Made that mixed berry trifle from issue 44 (I think that's the issue). In a word: yummy!

Hi, twilight, Several times I've typed something in only to find someone else had the same idea, too, so I thought this time, I'd announce myself!
Worked out well, I think PJ

Good thinking---I have typed many a recipe in word and came back to post---Tammy ALWAYS beat me to it though----NOT complaining cause it is still accessible to send to dear daughter!!
Thanks PJ and Jean---those recipes are definitely on the to do list when berries are in season here----and when DH deserves a special sweet treat (which is always BUT!!!!)

yeah, Tammy, I figured if someone didn't do it by tomorrow a.m., I'd be nice and do it....thanks PJ.
I love mixed berry pies/cobblers - I have one that my customer's just loved, and I don't think I've ever posted it. Will go look for it. This is the best, bar none (  ) cobbler I've ever tasted or made or sold or whatever!* Exported from MasterCook * NORTHWEST BLACKBERRY COBBLER Recipe By: a Chef's Journey For the Filling: 6 cups berries - 3 c blackberries 1 c raspberries 1 c blueberries 1 c strawberries 1 1/4 c sugar 1/4 c a.p. flour For the Batter: 2 c a.p. flour 1 c plus 1 T. sugar 1 Tbsp baking powder 1 tsp salt 1 c milk 8 Tbsps butter (1/4 lb.), unsalted and melted 1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg ---------- 1 c heavy cream, whipped for garnish Preheat oven to 350°. Filling: Mix the berries, sugar, & flour in a large bowl, & pour into a 15" nonreactive oval baking dish. Let stand ~35 min. Batter: Combine the flour, 1 c. of sugar, b. powder & salt in food processor. Process to combine; add milk & melted butter, beat till smooth. Spoon the batter over the berries, making sure you spread it to the edges of the dish (to prevent any excess juice from boiling over). Sprinkle the remaining 1 T. sugar and the nutmeg over the batter. Bake in center of oven till the crust is brown and crisp on the outside & cooked all the way thru, & the berries are bubbling up thru it, ~ 1 hour. Remove cobbler from oven & let cool for 10 min. before serving. Serve the cream along side. NOTES : 8-10 servings
