1 ounce dried mushrooms such as shiitake, soaked and drained, and finely chopped
4 cups Basic Tomato Sauce
Directions
Cook pasta, drain, and cool. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together ricotta, eggs, thyme, oregano, and 1 cup Parmesan. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir in mushrooms.

Line up manicotti in baking dish, and cover with 2 cups sauce. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan. Bake until bubbly, about 30 minutes.
I am looking for an apple pie, sugar free for diabetics, with cinnamon and nuts. I am a male, 64 years old and love this very classy The Great British Baking Show; an electrical Revit design engineer, a Romanian born, live in USA for over 30 years.Thank you!
Hi Ruth, Unfortunately, because this season aired in 2012 in the U.K., we were not able to acquire recipes from the season. We have tried to provide links to any recipes from the season that are on the BCC Food site, but it is quite limited.
These pies were nothing like American pies! American pies stay in the tin and have a flakey crust. The “pecan pie” with the cherries and chocolate topping was a disgrace, as well as all these “pumpkin” pies that didn’t even contain pumpkin. For the first time, I am truly upset with Mary and Paul.
The US is airing them backwards. Our season 1 is UK season 7, US 2= UK 6, US 3= UK 5, and so on. It is REALLY confusing. And I'm not sure why we've done that.
None of these "pies" even vaguely resembled a traditional American pie. American pies are baked in a pie plate, not a tart pan. A good crust is flaky but not as thin as the tart shells used in this bake. Fillings need not necessarily be overly sweet. I'm surprised that Mary and Paul, great bakers that they are, were not more familiar with trad
The Great British Baking Show is one of the few such shows I watch. Usually, I am not only awestruck by what some of these home bakers create, but I'm educated. Well, as I can't seem to find another place to put this comment, it is my turn to educate the Show. Last week, I watched the "pie" show. The showstopper was supposedly an American
None of those "american style pies" was a pie. A pie should be baked in, and sliced from, a pie dish. None of them used an American style pie shell, either; there was no crust edge, nor crimping. Only the sweet potato and key lime were even legitimate pie fillings. They were all more like "pie-inspired" tarts.
