"All of the elements of this pie can be made at least 1 day ahead, but save the assembly for just before serving. For the glaze, you can substitute store-bought currant jelly for fresh or frozen red currants and sugar. To do so, heat 1/3 cup jelly with the chamomile, then let steep for 10 minutes before straining...."
