MOM'S FRESH STRAWBERRY PIE image

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 pints capped berries (do not slice as they will bleed)
1 cup water
1 cup sugar
3 Tbl cornstarch
Juice of 1/2 lemon, (1 1/2 Tbl)
3 Tbl either Wild Strawberry or strawberry jello
Baked pie shell

Steps:

  • Line baked pie shell with strawberries. Mix sugar and cornstarch in pan. Add enough water to make a paste, then add remaining water. Put mixture on stove and cook it until it thickens and clears. Take off stove. Stir constantly as it will clump otherwise. May want to use whisk to stir. Stir in jello and lemon juice. Some people add red food coloring, although I do not. . Let cool and pour over pastry when cooler and not too cool. Otherwise it will be too thick. When served, top each individual piece with real whipped cream.
