Will my double crust for a fresh uncooked chicken pot pie get soggy if left in refrigerator overnight?
I am making 8 chicken pot pies with a double crust in a 9" round aluminum container as gifts for friends to take home and cook themselves or freeze it. I will pre-prep the filling on a Friday and assemble the pies the next day. I will refrigerate the pies overnight then give them to my friends that following day. Will the bottom crust get soggy overnight and not crisp up when baking?
Best Answer
No, it'll be fine. I can't elaborate really. It just will be fine it's how people have done it forever. I do it on a daily basis. As long as everything is cold when you assemble and the pastry is raw, you'll have no issue at all.
