Trisha Yearwood shared a humorous Pecan Pie reminiscence
“Here’s the thing: if you’re going to cook, you’re going to make mistakes. Even [on] things that you have made a million times,” Yearwood defined to Sounds Like Nashville.
“Thanksgiving, a few years ago, I made pecan pie. I make pecan pie every single Thanksgiving,” Yearwood continued.
“It’s got like four ingredients! How can you screw that up, right? So, one of the ingredients is a melted stick of butter. So, I put the butter in the microwave, and I melted the butter. I make the pie, and it comes out. I make two. It comes out, it looks gorgeous, like the pecans I put on top didn’t even sink in it. It’s like, ‘This is one of the most gorgeous pies I’ve ever made,’” Yearwood recalled.
“[I] start to serve it, and I’m like ‘This doesn’t feel [right], something doesn’t look right.’ It’s tasted good, more like a praline bar. But the butter was in the microwave. So, when I realized that, I brought the butter out, and we named it Bob Bowl ‘O’ Butter, and we had melted butter to dip our biscuits in at Thanksgiving,” she laughed.
