A classic southern favorite: Pecan Pie
I’ve learned to love and make pies ever since we moved to the United States. I’ve made many many pies since then. Pecan pies hold a special place in my heart having lived in the south. There are all sorts of variations in making this classic southern favorite; adding chocolate, whiskey, bourbon, coconut etc. But today I present to you a classic, plain and old-fashioned, southern pecan pie. I got this recipe from none other than a southern lady who used to be our neighbor for a while before she returned down south. Thank you Tracey. I recall when I first tasted it, I was in pecan heaven, I’ve since made it over and over again and no matter, where or when I’ve made it, it has always been a hit. On a recent trip to England to visit my family, I introduced this southern classic to them as it is not very common there. Toasting the pecans just a bit ahead of time intensifies the flavor.
