Is This the Best Pie in New York?

  • The week of Thanksgiving, this small store is making a colossal 15,000 pies - that’s almost 90 pies an hour! The master baker behind this serious operation is Petra Paredez, and it’s safe to say, pie runs through her veins.
    Growing up in her parents’ bakery in Virginia, Petra spent more time elbow deep in flour and butter than on the playground, soaking in the secrets of the pie game. After moving to New York, Petra met her husband on a first date and they immediately started planning a pie bakery together. Today, Petee’s Pie Company is a New York favorite, so there’s no surprise she’s earned herself the title ‘Absolute Best Pie in NYC’.
    Our team in our London office got to try Petee’s Pies pumpkin pie too and LOVED it. 🥧

      Grandma's recipe for strawberry rhubard, and Dad's chocolate pecan tart. Either of those with a dash of homemade vanilla whipped cream and a coffee on the side? Perfection.

    The fact that despite how many pies they make they still seem to do a lot by hand is impressive.
    I was thrown back when I saw them crack eggs.
    In the bakery I worked at for a year we had big 10 liter cartons of whole egg. I didn’t touch a single egg shell working there.

    Seems like a wasted opportunity that they talked about the Nesselrode pie, how it virtually disappeared from NYC and then..... nothing. They didn't talk about it, whats in it, or tried it. Bummer.

      @myladycasagrande863 Před 6 měsíci +11

      A little research indicates that it's a fluffy custard-based pie, with pureed chestnuts, candied fruit, and traditionally rum or brandy (which the home baking version of the Petee's recipe omits).

      ​@@myladycasagrande863maybe when North American Chestnuts went extinct many of its recipes went with it, as I don't think it was immediate that the importation of Asian chestnuts as a replacement began. Also the Asian variety we use today historically was considered inferior for many recipes, I believe because of the water content.

    Petee’s has been my go-to pie shop (both locations) for almost a decade now. During the warm season I love stopping by the shop to grab a slice a la mode, and during chilly season I bring their pies to all my holiday get togethers (I get requests to “not forget to bring a pie from that spot you brought from last year” lol). My non-pie friends tell me this is “the only acceptable pie” they’ll actually enjoy. I’ve tried many pie shops throughout NYC, and Petee’s is still top of my list. Their crust is CRACK. So happy to see them featured on one of my favorite YT channels!

    Sweet potato pie is the "quintessential pie" for..uh....many of the darker folks. But since Petee's has sweet potato too, kudos to Petee. She's the best. Oh, she also has classic cornmeal vinegar chess, pecan, and coconut custard. Covers all the southern favs.
