Mrs. Anderson's Baking Set of 2 Pie Birds is a unique baking accessory that blends a centuries-old Fairy Tale rhyme with the art of baking pies. Also known as a pie vent, pie funnel, pie chimney, or pie whistle, this whimsical pie bird allows steam to escape from the juices of meat and fruit pies while they bake, preventing the pie fillings from bubbling over and baking onto the racks or oven floor.

Made from fine-quality porcelain, these pie birds are not only decorative but also highly functional. The flat base adds stability during use, ensuring that the birds remain in place while the pie is baking. The steam vents through the bird's beak, keeping the pie filling from bubbling over and the top crust supported by the bird's shoulders, eliminating the risk of a bowed crust.

To use the pie birds, simply drape the bottom crust in the pie dish, place the bird in the center, and spoon in the pie filling. Then, add the top crust and cut a small hole so the pie bird can stick out to vent steam properly. Pinch the center of the top crust to the bird to seal, and bake the pie according to the recipe. Once the pie is done, allow it to cool slightly before removing the pie bird, as it will be hot. The birds are heat-safe up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit and dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup.

Whether you're learning how to make meat pie or perfecting a fruit pie from scratch, Mrs. Anderson's Pie Birds are the hero of baking accessories, working hard to keep the delicious filling inside the crust where it belongs. Brought to you by HIC Harold Import Co., these pie birds are made from lead and cadmium-free porcelain, ensuring they are strong and durable, making them a must-have for any home baker.
