Before blessing us with her wonderful pecan pie recipe, Camilla Wynn Ing, multi-instrumentalist for Montreal’s Sunset Rubdown, offers this simple advice: “Don’t wear black jeans when you make pie dough.” Sure thing, Camilla!
She adds, “It’s good with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, and it’ll keep for a while in the fridge. This is our merch guy’s favorite.”
