Oakland Fire
Department Pecan Pie
|
Here is the recipe from the Oakland Fire Department,
in California. Our dad was with them for 31 years, retiring as
Captain. Firefighters here work 24 hour shifts, sleeping in
dormitories, and cooking meals together. They are known for their good
recipes. The Fire Departments of various cities write cookbooks and
often compete in cooking contests.
Oakland Fire Department Pecan Pie Beat 3 eggs thoroughly with 2/3 cup sugar, a dash of salt, 1 cup dark corn syrup, and 1/3 cup melted butter. Add 1 cup pecan pieces. Pour into 9-inch unbaked pastry shell. Bake in moderate oven (350 F) 50 minutes or till knife inserted halfway between center and edge comes out clean. Cool and serve. (Karo is the brand of corn syrup I use, and I often mix it half and
half with golden syrup) Helen Wood, California Here is a variation from Marcia Sinclair,
