Strawberry pie
Strawberry pie is a pie made with strawberries and a variety of other ingredients. The most common recipe for strawberry pie includes a mixture of strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. This mixture is then placed into a pre-baked pie crust and baked until the filling is thick and bubbly.
The earliest known recipe for strawberry pie comes from an English cookbook from the late 1500s. This recipe called for the berries to be stewed with sugar and then thickened with flour. The modern version of strawberry pie most likely originated in the United States in the 19th century. At this time, strawberries were becoming increasingly popular and were being grown in large quantities. This led to a need for new recipes that used strawberries as the main ingredient.
One of the earliest known recipes for strawberry pie in the United States was published in 1845. This recipe called for the berries to be mashed and combined with sugar, flour, and cream. The pie was then baked in a pastry crust. This recipe is very similar to the ones used today.
Advice
Making a strawberry pie is a great way to enjoy the sweetness of strawberries. Begin by washing and hulling the strawberries and slicing them. Make a pastry crust for the bottom and sides of the pie. For the filling, mix the strawberries with some sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice to thicken it. Once the crust is filled with the mixture, top it with a crumb topping for a crunchy texture. Bake the pie for about 35 minutes until the crust is golden brown. To ensure a perfect pie, check the doneness of the crust before taking it out of the oven. Allow the pie to cool before serving and enjoy!
