1. If you need to make pies with a filling of fresh berries or fruits, then before putting them in the dough you need to roll them in flour.

2. When the base is jam, a little starch is added to the mixture. The ingredient will thicken the filling, which will not "run away".

3. Another trick involves using pectin, which is mixed with sugar and added to the filling.
