 The Pie and Pastry Bible January 14, 2008
This book has answered many questions I have had regarding which crust to use with which type of filling. I have already tried several of the recipes and they have all been hits!

Don't waste your money on the Rose Levy Beranbaum Pie and Cake Bibles. She unnecessarily complicates the recipes, and the instructions are not easy to understand. After hours of pains taking effort, the results are quite often NOT GOOD at all. I'm a very experienced cook, and have been disappointed each time I ventured into one of her lengthy and obtuse culinary ordeals.

And the Lord did sayeth, "Let there be pie", and there was pie, and yea it was good. And the Lord did eateth all the pie, and that did maketh everyone else Angry, and it was all not that good, but nobody did sayeth anything to the Lord because they know that if they Did than the Lord would smiteth them with a Thunder-bolt, and believeth you and me a Thunder-bolt is not much fun.
The Pie Bible doesn't have phrases like that, but when you think about it, it really should. As long as you don't think about it that much.
 Excellent resource March 9, 2007

The flaky cream-cheese pie crust recipe alone is worth the price of the book. Additionally there are other excellent recipes and techniques. Everything is very clear and fail-proof. There are recipes for various types of pie, struedel, danish, and savory pastries like quiche and empanadas.
