How to Make Strawn's Fresh Strawberry Pie
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually whisk in 3 tablespoons of cold water until a smooth paste forms.
- Add 1 cup of water to the saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Slowly whisk in the cornstarch mixture and continue to cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and becomes clear (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and a few drops of red food coloring (optional, for a brighter color).
- Let the filling cool for 15 minutes. Gently fold in 4 cups of sliced fresh strawberries.
- Pour the strawberry filling into your prepared pie crust.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the filling to set completely.
- In a separate bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Spread the whipped cream evenly over the top of the chilled pie.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the whipped cream to set.
