this was yummy but i agree with other reviewers above, it is a little too sweet for my tastes and is definitely meant to be balanced, i used 2 heaping tablespoons instead of 1 cup of sugar and it came out great anyway.

Very tasty indeed, but it does take quite a bit longer (but that depends on your oven). I would suggest starting with a low-pressure recipe and working your way up to a higher one, like a pressure cooker. Adjust the cooking time according to the amount of dough you have on hand (I start with about a half-inch difference). Adjust the seasonings according to the taste of your oven (after it has warmed up, I put the dough in for a few minutes to firm up). This is a fairly quick, but devilishly delicious pie! The depth of flavor in this pie cannot be over-emphasized! Go ahead and reduce the sugar if you must, but I have found that the sweet-tooth ratio is not optimal (too sweet for your taste). Once you get used to it, this is an easy, delightful dessert-filled pie!

Venezuelan Delight is the only proper noun here. Everyone else is just flourishes.
