Summer bye-bye... and grape jelly pie


By Baker's corner...somewhere in my kitchen (Visit website)



Grape Jelly Pie

I find it sad when a season comes to the end. And yet there is lots of joy for the new one coming.
Summer holidays are already history, and so is the warm, sunny weather, at least it seems so at the moment. In a week, my 6-year-old is starting elementary school, and the little one the kindergarten. They are so excited, and I'm seriously looking for a few moments of piece around the house.
Until then, the only place where I can hide is the kitchen (although I have to use the broom sometimes to throw them and their Barbie dolls, stuffed animals & co. out).
What did I bake this weekend? A delicious pie. Thin and crispy, sweet and tangy.
Of course, it's time for grapes.
Actually, I never baked anything with grapes, until I made that wonderful Schiacciata with grapes the other week, and I kept thinking about what else I could use it for. And looking through an old food magazine, I noticed this cute little pie. I knew immediately I was making it.
It looked so inviting. Like, "Hey, can you guess what's hiding inside?"

Grape Jelly Pie

Grape Jelly Pie

Pie crust:
300 g flour
a pinch of salt
30 g sugar
150 g cold butter
50 ml ice cold water

Grape jelly:
600 g fragrant red grapes
1 lemon
150 g sugar

For the crust: put the flour, the salt and the sugar into the bowl of your food processor, pulse a few times to mix them. Add the chopped cold butter and pulse again until the mixture starts resembling coarse crumbs. Add ice cold water and mix again (I always prefer pulsing in order not to warm up the blades) until the dough starts coming together.
Take the dough out and wrap it in a piece of plastic wrap. Let it cool in the fridge for 30 minutes.
For the grape jelly: put the grapes in a saucepan with the juice of 1 lemon. Cook for 1o minutes on medium-low heat, then strain the grapes pressing them through a fine mesh sieve (or use a vegetable mill), to remove the skins and the seeds.
Put the strained grape juice back to the saucepan, add the sugar and cook again, stirring, for about 10 minutes or until it starts thickening. Remove from heat and let cool.
Divide the dough in two parts, one slightly bigger. Roll them both out with a rooling pin and press the bigger circle into a 20-22 cm pie or crostata dish, covering the bottom and the sides.
Fill the shell with the grape jelly.

and transfer it carefully over the jelly. Press the edges of the dough to join them.

Bake the pie in an oven preheated to 180°C for about 35 minutes.
Let it cool and serve.


Grape Jelly Pie

Una crostata chiusa, con un ripieno goloso, dolce e un po' acidulo.
La ricetta viene da un vecchio numero di Cucina moderna.

Pie con uva fragola

Per la frolla:
300 g farina 00
una presa di sale
30 g zucchero
150 g burro freddo
50 ml acqua ghiacciata

Gelatina di uva:
600 g uva fragola
1 limone
150 g zucchero

Mettete la farina, il sale e lo zucchero nel mixer, aggiungete il burro freddo a fiocchetti e lavorateli fino a ottenere delle briciole. Versate a filo l'acqua e continuate a lavorare fino a ottenere una palla di pasta (io preferisco azionare il mixer a intervalli brevi per non riscaldare troppo il burro). Avvolgete la frolla nella pellicola e fatela riposare in frigo per 30 minuti.
Nel frattempo sgranate l'uva e mettetela in una casseruola con il succo di limone. Cuocetela per 10 minuti, poi filtratela attraverso un colino schiaciandola (oppure usate il passaverdure). Trasferite il succo così otenuto nella casseruola, unite lo zucchero e portate a ebolizione. Cuocete la gelatina per 10 minuti o fino a quando si addensa. Lasciatela raffreddare.
Dividete la pasta in due panetti, uno leggermente più grande. Stendeteli tutte e due in sfoglie sottili, e con quella più grande rivestite uno stampo da crostata del diametro 20-22 cm. Bucherellate il fondo riempitelo con la gelatina. Usando i piccoli tagliapasta rotondi, da 1 cm, incidete il grappolo d'uva sulla seconda sfoglia. Trasferitela delicatamente sul guscio farcito con la gelatina, fate aderire i bordi.
Spennellate la superficie con un po' di latte e cospargetela con un cucchiaio di zucchero semolato.
Cuocete la torta nel forno già caldo a 180°C per 35 minuti.
Lasciatela raffreddare, sformatela e servitela.



Grape Jelly Pie

Ova prhka pita, koja u sebi krije slatko i pomalo kiselkasto punjenje, odusevila me skoro koliko i Schiacciata s gro??em.

Pita s gro??em

prhko tijesto:
300 g bra?na
prstohvat soli
30 g ?e?era
150 g hladnog maslaca
50 ml jako hladne vode

drhtalica od gro??a:
600 g sitnog crnog gro??a
1 limun
150 g ?e?era

Pomije?ajte bra?no, sol i ?e?er. Dodajte hladan maslac narezan na listi?e pa ga utrljajte vr?cima prstiju u bra?no da dobijete krupnije mrvice. Dodajte 50 ml jako hladne vode i brzo zamijesite tijesto, oblikujte kuglu, omotajte je prozirnom folijom i ostavite u hladnjaku 30 minuta.
Operite gro??e, odvojite zrna od stapki i stavite ih kuhati sa sokom od limuna, 10 minuta.
Ispasirajte gro??e (na pasirku ili kroz gusto mre?asto cjedilo). Dobiveni sok pomije?ajte sa ?e?erom i kuhajte oko 10 minuta ili dok se ne zgusne. Ostavite da se ohladi.
Podijelite tijesto na dva dijela (neka jedan bude malo ve?i od drugog). Razvaljajte ve?i dio tijesta i utisnite ga u okrugli kalup promjera 20-22 cm tako da pokrijete dno i stranice (do otprilike 2 cm visine).
Izbodite tijesto vilicom pa ulijte drhtalicu od gro??a i rasporedite je ravnomjerno po tijestu.
Razvaljajte i drugi dio tijesta. Izre?ite na tijestu oblik grozda (okruglim kalupi?ima promjera 1 cm i stapku no?em) pa pa?ljivo prenesite u kalup i polo?ite preko ?elatine. Stisnite rubove donjeg i gornjeg lista tijesta.
Prema?ite povr?inu mlijekom i pospite ?licom ?e?era. Pecite u pe?nici zagrijanoj na 180°C oko 35 minuta. Ostavite da se ohladi, izvadite iz kalupa i poslu?ite.
