While certain main dishes garner the bulk of that love, soul food des- serts, such as the following rec- ipe for "Miss Ruthie's Old-Fash- ioned Peach Cobbler" from Patty Pinner's "Sweets: Soul Food Desserts & Memories" (Ten Speed Press) can complete a meal & keep friends and family coming back for more. Miss Ruthie's Old Fashioned Peach Cobbler Makes one 8-inch cobbler 1 unbaked double pie crust (see below) 8 cups peeled & sliced fresh peaches 2 cups granulated sugar 1⁄4 cup all-purpose fl our 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cinna- mon 1⁄2 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1⁄8 teaspoon ground allspice 1⁄2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Preheat the oven to 475 F. Lightly butter an 8-inch square glass dish. Set it aside. Prepare the pasty for a dou- ble-crust pie. Set it aside. Combine the peaches, sug- ar, fl our, cinnamon, nutmeg, & allspice in a 4-quart Dutch oven. Allow the mixture to sit until the dry ingredients are dissolved & a syrup forms, about 15 minutes. Bring the peach mixture to a boil over medium heat. Decrease the heat to low & cook until the peaches are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the mixture from the heat & add the butter. Roll out half of the pie pastry, then cut it into an 8-inch square. Spoon half of the peach mixture into the prepared dish. Cover the mixture with the pastry square. Bake 12 to 14 minutes, or until lightly browned. Take the dish out of the oven & spoon the re- maining peach mixture over the baked pastry. Roll out the re- maining pastry, then cut it into strips about an inch wide. Ar- range the strips in a loose lattice pattern over the peach mixture. Bake an additional 15 to 20 min- utes, or until browned. Remove from the oven. Serve warm. Double Pie Crust 2 cups all-purpose fl our, sift- ed 1⁄2 teaspoon salt 1 cup vegetable shortening, chilled 1 egg, beaten 6 tablespoons cold milk In a bowl, combine the fl our & salt. Cut the shortening into the dry ingredients with a fork or by pinching the shortening into the fl our mixture with your fi n- gers. The result should be coarse crumbs & small clumps the size of peas. Add the egg & mix well. Add the milk 1 tablespoon at a time. Don't be afraid to add more milk if necessary to achieve a dough that's wet enough to form into a ball. Being careful not to overwork the dough, form the dough into a ball with your hands. Wrap the ball in plastic, then chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Transfer the dough from the refrigerator to a lightly fl oured surface. Flatten the ball slightly & dust the top of it with fl our before rolling it out with a rolling pin. Divide the dough into two portions before rolling. Begin rolling at the center of the dough & work outward. Roll the dough out into a circle about 4 inches wider than the pie pan it will be placed in. Metro Editorial Love At First Slice! Love At First Slice! 235 S. Powell Street • Forest City 235 S.
