OLD-FASHIONED PECAN PIE
It's impossible to go wrong with pecan pie. Especially one that is really loaded with nuts, has a little verve from orange zest, and isn't overly sweet-exactly like the one here. Taking the time to track down new-crop pecans will push things right over the top.

ELEANOR ROOSEVELT'S PECAN PIE
Some folks can't have Thanksgiving without pumpkin pie, but I love pumpkin pie AND Pecan Pie. I found this recipe in "Capitol Hill Cooks" by Linda Bauer and decided to share. I use my own pie crust but the recipe has Eleanor's pie crust recipe.

If the dough holds together, add no more liquid; if not, add additional water. Line pie pan with crust. (No pie pan size given)
- 2. To make Filling: Cream 1/3 cup butter with 1 cup brown sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time; stir in 1 cup light corn syrup, 1 cup coarsely chopped pecans, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- 3. Fill the pie shell with the mixture. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and bake the pie for about 35 to 40 minutes.
- 4. When the pie is set and has cooled, decorate with pecan halves. Garnish with whipped cream around the entire edge.
