    It Gets Butter - Chuck Henson

    on this It Gets Butter I get to sit down with long time friend and professional gay, Chuck Henson.  Chuck has been on tv, announced for national band competitions, and now is a licensed massage therapist and loves to bake.  Here how we got here and how he stays so positive through is all in our first ever "call in" episode.   Apple Strawberry Pie: The Flaky Double-Crust Dough Yields one top and one bottom crust. Ingredients: 2.5 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cold and cubed 1 tablespoon sugar 1 teaspoon salt 6 to 8 tablespoons ice water Instructions: Mix Dry Ingredients: Whisk the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in Butter: Add the cold butter cubes. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the flour until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs with some pea-sized bits of butter remaining. Add Water: Drizzle in the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough just starts to come together. It should be moist but not sticky. Chill: Divide the dough into two disks, wrap them in plastic, and refrigerate for at least one hour. Roll: Once chilled, roll the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness. The Apple Strawberry Filling Ingredients: Your pre-cooked, chilled apple mixture Fresh strawberries, sliced 3 to 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour (to thicken the juices) Sugar (to taste, depending on the sweetness of the fruit) Instructions: Combine: Gently toss your chilled apples and sliced strawberries together. Thicken: Sprinkle the flour and sugar over the fruit and toss again until evenly coated. Assemble: Place the bottom crust into your pie plate. Fill with the fruit mixture, then top with the second crust. Vent: Be sure to cut slits in the top crust to let the steam escape—this keeps the crust from getting soggy! Baking Instructions High Heat Start: Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes. Finish: Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F and continue baking for 35 to 45 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling beautifully.
