Imprisoned steam wanting to get out?
For the first time as a culinary crime fighter, I actually want something to escape!
But when it comes to the pie crust that steam has gotta go!
Making the hole in the top of your pie crust will help release that steam and prevent that pie from exploding.
But it also prevents the pie crust from becoming soggy.
For this pie eater, there’s no worse culinary crime than a soggy crust.
So make that hole Link! Make. That. Hole.
