Do cobblers have a bottom crust?
Cobblers do not traditionally have a bottom crust, though some families make it as such. Generally a cobbler with a bottom crust and a top crust is more of a pie. The bottom of a cobbler is the fruit of your choice. The top is a delicious dough that is baked to perfection and makes cobbler a great treat!
What is the difference between a cobbler and a crisp?
A cobbler is topped with a batter while a crisp is topped with a crumbly mixture usually consisting of flour, cereal (like oatmeal), butter, sugar, and sometimes nuts.
How can you tell if a peach is ripe?
There are three main signs you can look for to tell you if the peach is ripe and juicy. 1. You should be looking for the peach to have a nice deep golden look to it its yellows. The more golden look to the peach the better. 2. Grab the peach and give it a gentle squeeze. If there is a little give to it but not much you the peach is not quite ready to eat. You want your peaches to be very soft when you squeeze them. 3. Sounds weird, but you want to look for wrinkles by the steam of the peach. Wrinkles mean that water has evaporated out of the peach leaving it with a greater peach flavor.
