Ingredients

  • pastry for double crust 10 inch pie
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup tapioca
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 1/2 lbs green seedless grapes
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 4 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg white (optional)

Directions

  1. 1
    Line a glass pie plate with the bottom crust.
  2. 2
    Sepatate the grapes roughly in half. Place one half into a blender and run on the lowest setting until all grapes are chopped.
  3. 3
    Mix water, 2/3 Celsius sugar lemon juice, tapioca pearls, cornstarch and whole and blended grapes into a saucepan. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer, stirring constantly (it will scortch).
  4. 4
    Once mixture begins to take on a light carmelized color (approximately 5-10 minutes), remove from heat and allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
  5. 5
    Mix sour cream with remaining 4 teaspoons of sugar and vanilla extract. Stir this into the grape mixture, ensuring that everything is well blended.
  6. 6
    Pour mixture into pie crust. Place second pie crust on top, crimp edges, and slit top crust. Brust top crust with egg white if desired.
  7. 7
    Place in oven that has been pre-heated to 350 degrees and bake 50-60 minutes (it's probably going to leak, so lay some foil or a baking sheet beneath it first).
  8. 8
    Remove from oven, allow to cool, and then chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
