Drunken Pastry
From the Kitchen of: Lauren Fulcrod
Directions:
-
To make super light + flaky pastry (for any pie), replace one tablespoon of the water with alcohol. Vodka is neutral so it works well for any flavor pie. I like to use bourbon for pecan pie or apple.
- When you bake the pie, the alcohol evaporates, leaving crumbly butter + flour.
The A.R.T. Community Cookbook is a collection of pie recipes contributed by A.R.T. patrons, staff, and fans during the run of Waitress. Recipes collected as a part of the Waitress Lobby Experience and via Instagram.
Also check out Behind the Counter, an oral history project featuring photos and interviews from people working in diners and restaurants around Greater Boston.
Jenna is a waitress and expert pie maker, is stuck in a small town and a loveless marriage. Her customers, co-workers, and the town’s handsome new doctor all offer her conflicting recipes for happiness—but Jenna ultimately has to decide for herself. This poignant and uplifting new musical celebrates friendship, motherhood, and the courage it takes to pluck a long abandoned dream off the shelf. Waitress is a new musical directed by Diane Paulus, featuring music and lyrics by Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles.
