    Title: Green Tomato Pie
    Categories: Pies, Pastry, Fruits, Citrus
    Yield: 6 Servings

    Pastry for a 9" pie; with
    - lattice top
    6 md Green tomatoes
    3/4 c Golden raisins
    1 1/2 ts Lemon zest; grated
    2 tb Lemon juice
    1 tb Cider Vinegar
    1 1/2 c Sugar
    3 tb Cornstarch
    1/4 ts Salt; scant
    1/4 ts Cinnamon
    1/4 ts Ginger
    2 tb Butter
    1 tb Confectioners' sugar; opt

    Line the 9" pie plate with pastry and chill.

    Set the oven @ 425?F/220?C.

    Wash the tomatoes and cut them into 1/8" thick slices,
    then cut the slices into half-moons; discard stem ends.
    Put the tomato slices in a large mixing bowl and add
    raisins, lemon zest and juice, and vinegar. Stir and
    set aside.

    Combine the sugar, cornstarch, salt and spices in a
    small bowl. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of this mixture over
    the chilled pie crust, and toss the rest with the sliced
    tomatoes. Turn the tomato mixture into the pie crust and
    dot with butter. It will be runny.

    Cut the remaining pastry into 1/2" strips to make a
    criss-cross design over the filling: Place 5 strips
    evenly over the pie filling; and place 5 more strips
    over them on the diagonal. Flute the edge of the pastry.

    Place the pie on a pizza pan to catch the drips. Bake
    the pie for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 325?F/163?C
    and bake for another 50 minutes, or until the filling
    is bubbling and the crust is golden brown.

    Let the pie cool completely before cutting; the hot
    filling is very liquid at this point. If desired, dust
    the top of the pie with confectioners' sugar immediately
    before serving.
