COBBLER ADDENDUM

By VBS Staff

On Monday, we shared RJD2’s personal cobbler recipe with you. After reading about our failed attempt, RJ wrote us with a few extra instructions. For those of you bold enough: take his cooking wisdom from the internet into the kitchen! From RJ:

Gotta point one thing out: the egg goes in the FILLING, not the topping.

Once you fuck this dish up enough- and I did SEVERAL times before finding my groove (and yet I still botch it occasionally)- you realize that the “wetness” of the topping is the CRUX of the ENTIRE DESSERT! It’s the part that is most easily botched, and actually really hard to get right, at least the way I do it. You’ve gotta go by feel. You must also violate a golden rule of baking and check halfway through. Thus my acknowledgement that this is not the “right” way to do a cobbler, just a way I can fumble my way through. Sorry, I cant help but feel responsible!
