Review on Enhance Your Baking with Mrs. Anderson's Pie Weights from Harold Import by George Cochran

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great but buy more than one box!

I recently baked an apple pie in a deep pan and needed pie weights so I could blind bake the bottom layer. (Blind baking prevents the bottom crust from getting soggy.) The recipe states that the pie weights should cover the bottom of the crust (bottom diameter is 7 inches) and rise slightly up the sides of the pie pan so the bottom crust is even. pressed against the mold during blind baking. A box of these didn't have enough cake weights to completely cover the bottom, and therefore not enough to even go up the sides of the pan. However, I love these pie weights (warm even, easy to clean and store, odorless, lasts forever) so I plan on buying more of these to solve this problem.

Pros
  • Pie, Tart & Pudding Pans
Cons
