All ovens vary in temperature and cooking times, therefore, we encourage you to use our cooking instructions strictly as a guideline and adjust based on your specific oven.
For “hot” ovens, it may be necessary to rest foil on top of crust if browning occurs before pie is done cooking.
When preparing a pot pie always place the pie on a cookie sheet before putting in the oven.
This will prevent gravy from spilling directly on the oven.
Make sure the gravy on all pot pies is bubbling prior to removing from oven
Gravy should be smooth when cooked properly. If not, keep cooking.
When cooking Blake’s Organic Shepherds Pie or Organic Macaroni & Beef in a conventional oven it is best to wrap the top with foil.
