Noodlesfreshstrawberrypie Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add the strawberries and 1/4 cup of the sugar and mix together. Let macerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the sugar on the bottom of the pie crust and pour the macerated strawberries on top. Pat down, so the berries come just to the edges. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup sugar on top of the strawberries. Cover with whipped cream and use a spatula to smooth.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, mix together the sugar and corn starch; make sure to blend corn starch in completely. Add boiling water, and cook over medium heat until mixture thickens. Remove from heat. Add gelatin mix, and stir until smooth. Let mixture cool to room temperature.
• Place strawberries in baked pie shells; position berries with points facing up. Pour cooled gel mixture over strawberries.
• Refrigerate until set. Serve with whipped cream, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. Unroll crust into a 9-in. pie plate. Trim edge. Line unpricked crust with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil or parchment. Bake 8 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack., In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and water until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in gelatin until dissolved. Refrigerate until slightly cooled, 15-20 minutes., Meanwhile, arrange strawberries in the crust. Pour gelatin mixture over berries. Refrigerate until set. If desired, serve with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Mix sugar, cornstarch, 1/2 c of the strawberries, crushed, water and lemon juice in a saucepan. Cook until thickened. Chill.
• Fill cooled pie shell with remaining strawberries, halved, and cover with cooked mixture.
• Top with whipped cream. Chill.

Steps:

• Prepare crust: Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, combine shortbread cookies, sugar, flour and salt and blend until you have fine crumbs. Transfer crumbs to a medium mixing bowl. Add butter and mix with a fork until crumbs are evenly moistened. Tip crumbs into a standard 9-inch pie plate and press them in an even layer on the bottom and up the sides of the plate. Bake until golden brown and set, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Prepare filling: Cut each of the strawberries in quarters or eighths, if they are large. Transfer 2 cups berries to a small saucepan and crush completely with a potato masher. Set aside the remaining berries in a large bowl. Add the sugar, preserves, cornstarch, 1 tablespoon water and salt to the saucepan.
• Bring strawberry mixture to a boil over medium heat and then cook it an additional 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add strawberry mixture and lemon juice to the strawberries in the bowl and stir to combine. Transfer to the prepared crust and gently tap it down into an even layer. Transfer to the fridge to set for at least 4 hours.
• Just before serving, whip cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla, if using, to soft peaks. Top pie with whipped cream.

Steps:

• For the crust: Spoon flour into measuring cup and level. Combine flour and salt in a medium bowl. Cut in shortening using a pastry blender until all flour is blended to form pea-sized chunks. Sprinkle with water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Toss lightly with fork until dough forms a ball. Press dough between hands to form a 5 to 6-inch pancake. Lightly flour rolling surface and rolling pin. Roll dough into circle. Trim 1-inch larger than upside-down pie plate. Loosen dough carefully. Fold dough into quarters. Unfold and press into pie plate. Fold edge under. Flute.
• For the filling: Blend sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan; add lemon-lime soda. Cook stirring until smooth and thick. Add strawberries and cook for a few minutes. If desired, add red food coloring. Pour into cooled pie shell. Chill. Top with whipped cream if desired.

Steps:

• For the crust: Mix together all ingredients (I use the food processor), press on bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate, and bake at 350-degrees for 8 minutes, or until crust is golden: cool completely.
• For the filling: Mash enough strawberries to equal 1 cup.
• Slice remaining strawberries, place in bowl, and sprinkle with sugar.
• Combine sugar, cornstarch, water and mashed strawberries in a heavy bottomed pot.
• Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and boils.
• Boil 1 minute.
• Remove from heat and add salt and almond extract.
• Cool 10 minutes.
• Fill cooled crust with remaining, sliced strawberries.
• Pour cooked mixture over strawberries.
• Refrigerate at least 3 hours, or until set.
• Serve with whipped cream, if desired.
• Note: This is also good with peaches or blueberries- and I have subbed chocolate wafers for the shortbread cookies.
• Sometimes, if I'm feeling citrusy, I omit the almond extract and add some grated orange or lemon zest.
