Best Answer

A pie is a baked dish which is usually made of a Pastrydough casing that covers or completely contains a filling of various Sweetnessor Umamiingredients. Pies can be either "filled", where a dish is covered by pastry and the filling is placed on top of that, "top-crust," where the filling is placed in a dish and covered with a pastry/potato MASH top before baking, or "two-crust," with the filling completely enclosed in the pastry shell. Pies can be a variety of sizes, ranging from bite-size to ones designed for multiple servings.

The silkworm in a cocoon is thrown into boiling water to kill the silkworm. The silk is then untangled and processed into a stronger silk thread. If the silkworm is allowed to mature in the cocoon, it will make a hole (damaging the silk) as it emerges from the cocoon.
