Whether to use up leftovers or as a creation all on its own,
shepherd's pie is an ultimate comfort food. But as I began experimenting with various ways to make the dish spicy compared to my tried and true recipe, I realized creativity can be utilized in each layer for a new spin on the classic, like with my
Shepherd's Pie with Jalapeno-Pea Purée recipe.

Common fillings include poppy seeds, sausage, and cabbage. At Piroshky Piroshky in Seattle's Pike Place Market, they add a Pacific Northwest twist with a version that rolls up smoked salmon pate.

This way to the poll! » **Not to be confused with Pi Day, the celebration of the symbol denoting the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter (aka 3.14). Naturally it's celebrated on March 14th, usually with pie and math geekage. Yeah, it's confusing, but is having...

Chicken empanadas. [Photograph: Sarah @ Short Stop] Last week on the Weekend Cook and Tell challenge we asked all of you to forgo your ideas about pies being sweet and fruity confections. We wanted you to think outside the pastry box and create savory pies, quiches, emapanadas, pasties, and turnovers. Winter months proved to be the perfect time for all of you to test out your non dessert baking skills. Our responses were full of crusty and flaky goodness. Check them out, after the jump....

[Photograph: This Is Why You're Fat] Remember the Cherpumple? That pie-cake-splosion from Charles Phoenix we told you about? Here's a better view of the monster. The anatomy: Bottom: Pumpkin pie inside a spice cake Middle: Apple pie inside a yellow cake Top: Cherry pie inside a white cake, all surrounded by cream cheese frosting That's a whole lot of pie guts. Cherpumple: probably more fun to say than it is to eat. Related How to Make the Cherpumple Cakespy: The Pumpkin-Apple-Pecan Pie Taste Test: Frozen Apple Pies...
