Store-bought pies save time but often lack the cozy, homemade feel. A quick fix is to brulee the surface using sugar and a blowtorch.
Using a blowtorch distances from the pie’s surface is crucial. This allows the sugar to caramelize without burning the pie, creating a delightful texture.
Custard or buttery pies are best for brulee since the melting sugar creates a perfect crunchy topping without compromising the dessert's structure.
Perfect examples for this technique include pumpkin pie, custard pie, and chess pie, allowing you to achieve an inviting and texturally appealing dessert.
