in May, 1944, the enrichment program was
extended to include all white rolls and buns.
In October, 1946, War Food Order No. 1
requiring enrichment of all white bread was
rescinded and the Federal regulations were
made optional. A number of states and sev¬
eral territories, however, require that all
white flour and white bread must be en¬
riched. When breads are labeled "enriched,”
it means they are white bread which, in addi¬
tion to the nutrients present in ordinary
bread, has definite amounts of iron, thiamine,
riboflavin, and niacin added. Calcium and
vitamin D may be added. The Federal
standards for vitamin and mineral enrich¬
ment of bread and rolls are given in Table
LXIV.

XXIV * Pies and Other Pastries
Pie is one of the most typical and best-
liked of all American desserts. A good pie is
dependent, first of all, upon the quality of its
crust or the pastry from which it is made.
Pastry may be used for other dishes than
pies, and a few pies are made from a rich
biscuit dough instead of pastry. The various
kinds of pies and some other pastries are dis¬
cussed in this chapter.
PIES AND VARIATIONS
A typical pie consists of one or two pie
crusts with a filling. In a two-crust pie, the
filling, usually fruit in a dessert pie, is placed
between the crusts, and is baked.
In a one-crust pie, the crust may be either
on top or underneath the filling, and crust
and filling may be baked together. One
kind of one-crust pie is the custard-type,
which has a plain custard or a variation of a
custard, such as pumpkin, baked in a crust.
Another kind of one-crust pie consists of a
baked pie shell filled with a cooked cream
or other filling, such as chocolate, butter¬
scotch, and chiffon. Such pies are called
"soft pies.”
The classification below shows the differ¬
ent kinds of pies.
Classification of Pies
I. One- Crust Pies
1. Cream pies (in baked shells)
2. Custard pies (baked in crust)
3. Chiffon pies (in baked shells)
a. Souffle type (baked)
b. Gelatin type (chilled in refrigerator)
4. "Dutch” fruit pies (baked in bottom crust)
II. Two- Crust Pies
1. Fruit pies
a. Solid top
b. Lattice top
c. Turnovers
2. Mince pies
(Same variations in top as fruit pies)
III. Cither One-Crust or Two-Crust Pies
1. Cobblers (usually two-crust, but may be
one-crust, either top or bottom)
Large, shallow, any shape
2. Deep-dish fruit pies (usually top crust
only but may be two-crust)
Deep, any size, any shape
3. Meat pies (usually top crust only)
4. Tarts (individual or very small pies of any
kind)
