Preparation

Pour all ingredients, except for pie shells and egg mixture, in a large bowl. Gently stir to coat blueberries entirely. Set aside.
Roll out the pie dough and place one in a 10 inch mold. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat over at 425°F.
Pour blueberry mix in the pie crust and spread well.
Cut strips of about ½ inch into the other pie shell and braid onto pie. Fold in the edges of the dough and squeeze to seal and create crust. Brush with the egg mixture.
Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake in the oven, on the lower grill, for about 20 minutes until dough is golden. Lower over temperature at 350°F, gently cover with aluminum foil and continue baking for about 40-50 minutes, until the blueberries boil gently. Remove from oven and let cool completely before serving.

Our sommeliers suggest

L'Infusée, Brasseurs du Monde

Sud-Ouest, France.

This Belgian witbier is infused with three teas, and the green tea goes straight for the blueberry in the pie. Its notes of berries and greenery meet the lemon zest in the filling. Soft and light, it goes with the slice without adding another layer of sugar. See the product

Domaine Cauhapé Jurançon Symphonie de Novembre 2020

Sud-Ouest, France.

A beautiful Jurançon, dense and complex, full but fine, with notes of honey, apricot and lemon. Long on the palate, its acidity is very well balanced with its sweetness. A treat that will be impeccable with berry desserts or white cakes. See the product

*Pairings are suggestions. If you can't find the exact product, substitute for the same type of beer or varietal blend from the same region. Feel free to ask a consultant for help!
