I'm always interested in finding more options for Pi Day (March 14) :) This book has a great collection of different pie and pie-related savory dishes. I was very impressed by the savory "crumble" even. It includes many different pot pies, hand pies, galettes, quiches, and anything else that can be made with pie or biscuit dough and a savory filling. I can't wait to try some of the quiches and pot pies especially. There is a good range of fillings, including vegetables, chicken, turkey and even shrimp. If you're looking for some interesting dinner ideas, this is the book for you.

This book has a great introduction and the guide to tools and ingredients to use is very detailed. Lovely pictures and the page numbers with details of recipes at the start of each chapter is really useful. The recipe for success box is a nice touch as it makes me feel like I’m getting a top tip to help make the recipe better. Lots of fantastic recipes with a great variety and I look forward to trying a few very soon.

I am so excited to have access to this cookbook. After visiting a local pie pub at the weekend, I was thrilled to see this available to request. With over 70 recipe's there is so much variety and it is great that the book has gorgeous photos to go alongside the recipes. I love that this encompasses pies from around the world with different ingredients for a variation of occasions. Some lovely options from casual homemade dinners but also fancy ideas, perfect for dinner parties.
I can't wait to make my way through these!

This one I liked that was very clear in the instructions, i could have used a little more images but not a problem really.

One thing that got my attention was the lots of crusts they are omg I always thought it was you know the only crust one but it was interesting and you have instructions for all of them.

The instructions were very easy to understand and you have a lots of recipes for any occasion you may think of and try lots of new things that was my actual goal with this one.

Just the title of this book made my mouth water! I was impressed with all the new and unique ways to prepare savory hand pies, quiche, shepherds pie, pot pies, cobblers and strudels. I was a little frustrated that there wasn’t a big beautiful photo for each recipe but I was inspired to try some of these interesting recipes.

Thank you Netgalley, Quarto Publishing Group-Harvard Common and the author for this eARC in exchange for my honest review.

When I think of dinner pies, frozen pot pies come to mind and that’s it, until this cookbook made me see that you can add a delicious crust to just about anything and it’s not just for dinner. Beautifully photographed.

Pies seem to be the trendy form of baking these days, and Ken Haedrich offers dozens of recipes for a version of pie that will turn heads at dinner parties. His recipes for savory pies are mostly delicious (there are some odd ones, but I’m sure they are just odd for me). The traditional Steak and Ale pies, pot pies, Easter pies, and my personal favorite - hand pies - are nicely balanced and accompanied by generally clear instructions.

The basic recipes for pastry dough are fairly simple even for beginning cooks and the ones I tried were quite tasty. This will make a solid addition to library shelves everywhere.

A great book of savory pies. Recipes are well written and are very achievable. I can't wait to get started. The flavour combinations are sure to please my whole family.

Thank you to Quarto for the ARC to read and review.

For someone who does not deal well with flour, the first pages encouraging me to make my own pie dough kinda freaked me out. But I can't fault the author for having such confidence in his pupils, I just know my limitations.

This is a very nice cookbook with great photography, just not of everything which I really like to see in a cookbook. You've got hand pies, appetizer bites, quiches, and main meal pies.

I chose this because my family loves most one dish dinners & I wanted to shake up other dinner time!

When I saw this cookbook in NetGalley, I was immediately drawn to it. My expectations were exceeded! I plan to order a hard copy of this book for my kitchen.

The first part of the book goes into details on how to make pie crusts. And not just one kind of dough. There are several types of dough it goes over. Dinner Pies includes recipes not only for pot pies, but also quiches, pizzas, gazettes, tarts, and more. There is even a tomato and ham cobbler recipe! And each recipe has additional tips and options for success.

My family is going to be super happy I picked the advanced reader copy of this up. The only struggle I had was to quit drooling long enough to write this honest review in exchange for the advanced copy I I was lucky enough to receive!

Another great cookbook! Lots of really delicious looking recipes I can't wait to try and lots of new ideas for quiches and pies!

Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for providing me with an arc for an honest review!

Fascinating cookbook providing a large variety of crusts from go to crust, savory as well as sweet. The large range will definitely provide options to go to for your next dinner party. The book then explores hand pies and pizzas, each culture has their own variety of hand pies this cookbook takes you on a mini world tour of flavors and cultures. Pizza's explores breakfast to vegetarian. Tarts, tarte tatin to galletes there is something for everyone with these developed recipes with beautiful photographs. Quiches and cousins takes the reader to other wonderful flavors mixed together in a delightful variety to expand your cooking repertoire. This leads into Potpies that explores way beyond a typical pot pie and takes to the sea. The seafood pies are just some of the ones represented it takes Thanksgiving leftovers to a different level as well as beef, beer, meatballs as well as lamb have their own crust to bake. The cookbook rounds out the chapters with everything from cobbler, strudel and chicken with biscuits. This cookbook will be your go to dinner manual for recreating favorites to discovering new flavors. Definitely want to check this one out!

A good selection of pie and lie adjacent recipes, although I was a little disappointed that there were more non-pies than pies. I was hoping for varieties and plays on pot pies and handpies but this is more of an introductory book.

A very informative book of making all sort of savory foods encased in pastry of many types. I love the introduction as it talks about basic things like pie pans, forms, parchment paper, fat ingredients, baking and more From there, there are chapters. on Pie dough and Pastries, Hand pies, turnovers and pizza, Little pies, tarts and Galettes ,Quiches, Pot Pies, Shepard pie and Meat pies and lastly Cobblers, strudels and wrapped entrees.. All beautifully explained and most with full color photos. There really is an abundance of all types of pies for all occasion and for all taste. This is a big book, with lots of recipes, I would have like a photo of each finished pie associated with the recipes printed, but there is enough eye candy here, that it isn't a huge problem.

This cookbook is filled with recipes for savory dinner pies, mainly meaty. The recipes are very clear.

Thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book. A lovely collection of recipes, a broad range and great photographs. Currently working my way through the selection and recommend it as a good resource!

♡ Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC. I voluntarily chose to review it and the opinions contained within are my own.

Savory Dinner Pies is a well written and appealing collection of one-dish savory pies by Ken Haedrich. Released 18th Jan 2022 by Quarto on their Harvard Common Press imprint, it's a comprehensive 224 pages and is available in paperback and ebook formats.

I loved this book's layout and the spare well written no-nonsense text. The author is *very* competent, he knows what he's doing, and he is generous enough to want to share that experience with the world. The entire book felt to me like a worthwhile and rewarding masterclass. The introduction contains the nuts and bolts of techniques, equipment, and ingredients. Whilst the author presupposes no previous knowledge on the reader's part, it will be useful to know one's way around a kitchen. (But if not, don't despair, a keen beginner could follow the recipes here and achieve good results).

The following chapters contain the recipes, arranged roughly thematically: pie doughs & pastries, hand pies turnovers & pizza, little pies tarts & galettes, quiches & their cousins, pot pies (MUCH love to this chapter), shepherd's pie & other meat pies, and cobblers streudels & wrapped entrees. The recipes are inspired by world cuisine and their origins are delicious and diverse.

The recipes have their ingredients listed bullet style in a sidebar. Measurements are given in US standard only; there's an abbreviated conversion chart in the back of the book. Special tools and ingredients are also listed, along with yields and cooking directions. Most of the ingredients are easily sourced at any moderately well stocked grocery store. Special dietary needs recipes are blended in without specific commentary (there aren't a lot of vegan friendly recipes included, for example). Nutritional information is not included.

It's beautifully illustrated throughout with color photos. Serving suggestions are attractive and appetizing. I'm a visual learner, especially with cooking, and having the photos really helped me. The food styling is very well done.

Five stars. It is, admittedly, a niche cookbook, but the recipes are so varied and so tasty that this would be a great choice for library acquisition, or for "everyday" cooks looking for some variation on meat & potatoes.

Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.

What a great and cozy cookbook! We read this this morning and can’t wait to try out so many of these comforting meals! Will probably buy this book once it’s available. (1/18/2022) the author explains each recipe very clearly and in a quick, condensed way which I love.

The book itself is clean and white with easy to follow recipes from everything from crusts to seafood pot pies.

Can’t wait to try so many of these this winter!!

Thank you to NetGalley and Ken and publishers for the opportunity for an advanced readers copy of this cookbook in exchange for an honest review. Looking forward to a physical purchase of this book!

When Ken Haedrich spoke of adding delicious crusts to his meals, I was curious. Then I read his intro and was hooked. Here is a man after my own stomach! He provides a thorough background, including his tips and tricks, to producing great crusts. There are many versions provided with insights on how to have them turn out perfect. The recipes are creations that I would never have thought of on my own, but upon seeing and reading them all, I cannot wait to start copying these meals for my own table. The classics are present in addition to so many new ideas. All of the directions are straightforward and easy to follow. The photos provided are helpful, particularly as you are working with crusts, which can be managed in so many ways. The book is laden with experience and insights. An excellent addition to any kitchen for someone who appreciates a delicious savory dinner pie.
