Take your steak next level with this Blue Cheese and Pecan Butter
It can well be argued great steak needs no additions – but you won’t regret adding this amazing savory butter. This compound butter...
They say you’re either into cooking or baking. I guess I break the mold on that one, because as much as I love cooking, grilling, smoking and braising meat, I also like turning on the oven and flexing my baking muscle once in a while. They say you’re also supposed to be very precise when baking, though my “throw it all together haphazardly” method seems to contradict that. In particular, I seem to enjoy baking pies, as evidenced by this key lime pie and this buttermilk, molasses and white pepper number.
If you’re one of those people who shies away from baking due to degree of difficulty, fret not. Thankfully, this recipe is extremely forgiving and outrageously easy – totalling a mere six ingredients (if you count a pie crust as one). Pies like this one are a great “make in advance” dessert, so you can focus your cooking efforts on the main meat event.
I’ll concede – there is nothing brittle about this pie. I named it so because I think it tastes exactly like peanut brittle, albeit with a different texture. The soft set caramel filling develops a chewy crust when baked, offset by the crunch of the roasted peanuts. A generous sprinkling of fleur de sel rounds out the sweetness. It’s incredibly rich, and you’ll want to serve it in pretty thin slices…until you can build up to a bigger portion!
