    Recipe

    Title: PEACH CRUMBLE PIE
    Categories: Pies, Fruits, Malgieri
    Yield: 10 servings

    1 No-Roll Pie Shell
    -(See RECIPE)

    MMMMM———————–CRUMB TOPPING—————————-
    1/2 c Butter
    1/2 c Light brown sugar
    1 1/4 c All-purpose flour

    MMMMM———————–PEACH FILLING—————————-
    2 1/2 lb Ripe freestone peaches
    1/4 c Sugar
    1 tb Flour
    1/4 ts Nutmeg
    1 ts Finely grated lemon zest

    PREPARE AND REFRIGERATE pie shell. For the crumb topping: Melt butter
    and stir in brown sugar evenly. Stir in flour, then allow to rest 5
    minutes. Break up into large crumbs using fingertips. Preheat oven to
    350F. Set a rack in the lowest level of the oven. Cut a cross in the
    blossom end of each peach and plunge them a couple at a time into a
    pan of boiling water for about 30 seconds. Remove to a bowl of cold
    water and slip off skins. If peaches are ripe, skins will slip off
    easily. If not, touch up with a paring knife. Halve and pit peaches,
    then cut each half in 5 or 6 wedges. Place peaches in a bowl and
    sprinkle with remaining filling ingredients, toss well to coat and
    pour into pie shell. Sprinkle crumbs evenly over filling and bake
    about 30-to-40 minutes, until filling is bubbling and crumbs appear
    well colored. Cool on a rack and serve lukewarm or at room
    temperature.

    vinegar, chili paste, sugar, sesame and vegetable
    oils, sherry, dry mustard, salt and chicken stock.
    Blend thoroughly. Cover and set aside. Do not
    refrigerate.

    To make noodles, cook fettuccine until tender. While
    noodles are still warm, toss with oil until well
    coated. Chill. Place carrots in sieve and pour boiling
    water over them. Immediately pat dry with paper towels
    and chill. Wrap julienned green onions, ham, bean
    sprouts, cucumber and red pepper separately and chill
    until serving time. Bring noodles to room temperature
    before serving. At serving time, place noodles in
    center of large round bowl or platter. Arrange
    vegetables and ham attractively in separate mounds
    around edge. Blend peanut sauce again and pour over
    noodles, vegetables and ham. Toss.
