+
+    Attempt to retrieve the named value from pillar, if the named value is not
+    available return the passed default. The default return is an empty string.
+
+    The value can also represent a value in a nested dict using a ":" delimiter
+    for the dict. This means that if a dict in pillar looks like this::
+
+        {'pkg': {'apache': 'httpd'}}
+
+    To retrieve the value associated with the apache key in the pkg dict this
+    key can be passed::
+
+        pkg:apache
+
+    CLI Example:
+
+    .. code-block:: bash
+
+        salt '*' pillar.get pkg:apache
