Guest guest Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Absolutely not! A tart is a tart. A pie is a pie. J You can have one crust (bottom) or two. Coconut cream pie is a one crust pie. It’s like chocolate cream pie, except the pudding (filling) part is vanilla with coconut mixed in. Then you put a meringue crust on top and sprinkle more coconut and then broil it a sec for the coconut to brown. You probably have to like coconut.

I can't wait. > Thanks for reminding me. :-) > What in the name of all that is holy is coconut cream pie??? Somebody American please explain! :-) S ps - I'm not much of a pie person (I actually wonder if we're even on the same definition of " pie " here. Do tarts count? I do love proper French lemon tarts - the proper baked custardy kind, not the ikky little jammy kind). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 I think they are similar but from watching the Food Network, I think the crusts are somewhat different (I'm not sure how) and I bet they aren't as sweet as American pies. --Alana -------------- Original message -------------- >> Absolutely not!

You make a bottom crust and sides, you prepare and put in a filling, you stick it in the oven and bake it, you cut it into slices and eat it! (preferably not all at once - but listen to your intuition! <g>)This is a sample recipe for my favourite kind of French lemon tart. (American friends, you can just call it a tangy lemon pie if you like. ;-)http://www.recipezaar.com/234277(only I would make my own shortcrust pastry, natch!)

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 They can be but I think they can also be a big pie just like the American pies. --Alana -------------- Original message -------------- But aren’t tarts really, really small?

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Sounds like you are well on your way! --Alana -------------- Original message -------------- You know, I've also begun to find, now that I'm actually, reallyattempting to do true IE, without any eating-disordered behaviors,that I simply do not WANT to eat a lot of rich, sweet foods all thetime. Don't get me wrong -- I still really like a lot of rich, sweetfoods, like chocolate, cheesecake, candy, what have you. It's justthat my body has given me firm indications on these matters that Ishould only eat so much of them, and only so often, or I will probablyfeel ill and gross for many hours afterwards.I mean, yes, I can still choose to eat them, and I can still choose tocontinue to eat them long past the point of fullness, or long past thepoint at which I know I will start to feel sick.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Absolutely, and I don't even like pie that much. When I went to the store yesterday, I looked at them in the bakery and the frozen ones, and decieded I really didn't want one, it was just all this talk of pies that was triggering the thought. Besides, If I really want one, I think I would make my own - probably apple. But if so, got to eat it fresh out the oven when it is still warm and with vanilla ice cream on top! --Alana -------------- Original message -------------- Is all this talk about pies making anyone else really hungry for pie??!!
