<RecipeText>Crust:  Combine flour and salt in large bowl.  Cut in butter and shortening with pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse meal.  Sprinkle with lemon and toss lightly.  Gradually add chilled peach nectar, blending gently but thoroughly.  Add enough lemon juice to make firm dough.  Form dough into ball, then flatten into disc.  Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Glaze:  Combine all ingredients in small saucepan and stir to blend.  Cook over medium heat until reduced to about ¾ cup, about 45 minutes.  Strain and cool slightly.

Filling:  Combine sugars and cornstarch in small bowl and mix well.  Transfer some of sugar mixture to large bowl.  To facilitate peeling peaches, immerse 4 at a time in boiling water for 2 minutes.  Drain and run under cold water.  Peel and cut into ¼- to ½-inch slices.  Arrange layer of slices on top of sugar mixture in large bowl.  Repeat layers with remaining sugar mixture and peach slices.  Toss gently to blend.  Sprinkle with lemon juice, spices and salt and toss again, blending thoroughly

To assemble:  Position rack in lower third of oven and preheat to 425?F.  Roll dough out lightly floured surface to circle ¼-inch thick.  Roll up on rolling pin and unroll over 9-inch metal pie pan.  Press dough gently into place without stretching.  Trim edge, leaving ½-inch overhang (reserve trimmings).  Brush bottom and sides of pastry with glaze.  Layer filling neatly in pastry.  [I drain my peaches to avoid getting too much of the juice from the peaches into the pie.  Also I put in 1 to 1½ pints of raspberries in with the peaches.  Too many dominate the pie, but some make a nice addition to the peaches.]

Gather dough trimmings together and roll out into circle ¼-inch thick.  Cut ½-inch wide strips of dough.  Arrange in lattice design atop filling, pressing ends into edge of crust.  Fold pastry overhang up over lattice ends and crimp decoratively.  Carefully brush lattice and crimped edge with beaten egg mixture.  Cut strip of foil 2 to 3 inches wide and about 30 inches long and cover edge of crust.

Bake 20 minutes at 425?F.  Remove foil and continue baking until golden, about 20 to 30 minutes.  Transfer pie to rack and let cool slightly.  Serve warm.

8 servings.

This is from Bon Appetit and is one of the best peach pies I&apos;ve ever made.  Hope you enjoy it.  From Pauline Viviano.
