Your piemaking age is the approximate number of years you’ve been making a pie plus the approx number of years the person who TAUGHT you to make that pie made it.
So I’m oldest in apple-#piemaker years (around 120), which I hope explains adequately why I had a very hard time deciding what variety to buy (and mix with Granny Smiths) when the store didn’t have any of my usuals, just a bunch of newfangled sweet-eating hybrids. I’m a very old lady, set in my ways! 👵🏻🥧
