Smoky tea prune and grappa custard pie
Pies

September and early October tend to be warm here in the Bay Area, so fall comes a bit later than in other places. You know autumn has arrived, however, when the farmers’ market vendors begin selling the new crop of nuts. There’s nothing, really, like a fresh walnut. I combine walnuts, prunes and figs in this pie, then cover them with a Grappa scented custard. Have you ever steeped prunes in a smoky tea? There's something about the raisin-y sweetness balanced with the smoke notes in the tea that I find irresistible. Enjoy!! ;o)
