From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lattice pastry is a pastry woven in a criss-crossing pattern of strips in the preparation of various foods. Latticed pastry is used as a type of lid on many various tarts and pies. The openings between the lattice allows fruit juices in pie fillings to evaporate during the cooking process, which can caramelize the filling.[1]

Latticing can also be achieved by cutting horizontal rows of slits into a whole pie crust and pulling gently to open the slits, a technique known as a "peekaboo" lattice.[2][3]
