Hi I'm Karen for Expert Village now I'm ready to put the lattice on the pie. First I'm going to brush the edge with a little egg white so that those lattice pieces will stick to the bottom pie crust. So just take that egg white and brush just the edge there lightly. We would start by laying 6 strips across the pie evenly across the pie 1,2,3,4, there move them a little bit a little closer there 5, and use the short ones for the ends 6. Okay now we are going to fold back every other one just to the center and then place a long one right down the center and fold those back. Now fold that back every other ones and place a strip across and fold it back. Being careful not to tare the crust as you go. Now again we are going to fold back every other one the opposite ones and we would use the shorter piece for the finishing of it and then fold, fold that back. And you have a nice woven pattern. Lets turn it around now we are going to start again from the center and go in this way. You want to think about now this is a over so this has to be a under. So all the under we are going to fold here is a over, now next we need a under. Let's fold that back every other one. Place our pie crust gently across, fold it back, and now repeat with the other one, every other one. Place your pie crust there, fold it back and one more fold that over and now we are finish with the lattice and next we are going to crimp the edge.
