Combine dry ingredients for crust in a large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture reaches a crumbly consistency. Slowly incorporate the water until dough balls easily and uniformly. Cover and chill for at least five hours. Roll out dough onto a floured surface.


Cover pie pan evenly with dough. In a separate bowl, combine filling


ingredients until uniform. Fill pie shell and cover with remaining dough, sealing the edges with a fork. Whisk egg yolk and water, then paint onto the crust. Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes, then

There’s just one officially sanctioned cricket sta- dium in the country—at Central Broward Regional Park in south Florida (pictured on page 17). While cricket is the world’s second most popular sport, it’s long been underrepresented in the United States. But the small city of Lauderhill, home to a large Caribbean immigrant population of ardent cricket fans, is vying to change that. Since opening in 2007, the stadium has hosted a number of historic firsts, from the first U.S. Cricket Open to the first professional world cricket match held on American soil. At that event, 16,000 screaming spectators showed up to watch the West Indies crush New Zealand, proving that cricket can draw crowds stateside, too. The stadium stands on the site of a former AT&T


antenna farm conserved by The Trust for Public Land in 2001. City officials say the property’s transformation has rejuvenated the local economy, bringing welcomed tourist dollars and international attention to “the Cricket Capital of the United States.”
