PASTRY SHIELD RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°.
• Place pie dough on a lightly floured work surface; roll into a 12-inch circle. Fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate coated with cooking spray. Turn edges under; flute. Combine rhubarb, granulated sugar, juice, and apples; toss. Sprinkle the rhubarb mixture with cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 3 tablespoons flour; toss. Spoon rhubarb mixture into prepared crust.
• Weigh or lightly spoon remaining 38 ounces flour (about 3/4 cup) into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine 38 ounces flour, remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt, and brown sugar in a medium bowl; cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in walnuts. Sprinkle butter mixture evenly over rhubarb mixture. Bake at 425° for 15 minutes.
• Reduce oven temperature to 375° (do not remove pie). Bake at 375° for 30 minutes or until golden and bubbly (shield edges of crust with foil if it gets too brown). Let pie stand on a cooling rack for 15 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Prepare pie crusts as directed on box for Two-Crust Pie using 9-inch glass pie pan.
• In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender. Stir in flour, salt and pepper until well blended. Gradually stir in broth and milk, cooking and stirring until bubbly and thickened.
• Stir in chicken and mixed vegetables. Remove from heat. Spoon chicken mixture into crust-lined pan. Top with second crust; seal edge and flute. Cut slits in several places in top crust.
• Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown. During last 15 to 20 minutes of baking, cover crust edge with strips of foil to prevent excessive browning. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
