- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment
paper; set aside. In a large bowl, combine sugar, cornstarch, salt,
ginger, cinnamon, cloves, pumpkin puree, and 3 eggs. Beat well. Add
evaporated milk, and combine. Set aside.
- Between two pieces of plastic wrap, roll pate brisee into a 12-inch
circle. Fit pastry into a 9-inch glass pie plate; trim dough evenly
along edge, leaving about a 1/2-inch overhang. Pinch to form a
decorative edge. If the dough begins to soften, chill for 15 minutes.
- Make the glaze: Beat the remaining egg, and combine with heavy
cream. Brush glaze very lightly on edges of pie shell. Fill pie shell
with pumpkin mixture. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F, and continue
baking for 30 minutes more. Cool on a wire rack.
