Strawberry Season

Posted by R. Nichols on

 I was in the grocery store the other day and noticed the mountain range of strawberries in the produce section - which reminded me of my greatest baking achievement  - California Strawberry Pie.

There was a tiny little restaurant in St. Louis (where I spent my high school years) called "The Elsah Landing Restaurant".   Daily they offered a variety of soups, bread and most importantly, PIES.  One pie in particular, California Strawberry Pie, was undeniably the best. I've got the "Elsah Landing Cookbook" in my possession - and decided to bake the strawberry pie this past weekend.  My friends unanimously agreed that it was superior even to my apple and grape pie (which was high praise).  SO I thought I'd share the recipe with you.

This pie is delicious when you make it - but the NEXT DAY it is even more delicious (especially for breakfast) - as all the ingredients really come together.


CALIFORNIA STRAWBERRY PIE

1 (9-inch) pie shell, baked.  Now - I am certainly capable of making my own pie crust - but I was lazy and bought a frozen one which I baked for 10-15 minutes at 425 degrees (until it was just lightly browned).  It worked just fine.

1 cup instant nonfat dry milk powder (sounds gross but trust me)

2/3 cup sugar

1/3 cup boiling water

3 Tablespoons butter, melted

2 Tablespoons lemon juice

Combine dry milk, sugar and water with butter in a blender jar.  Blend until smooth.  Stir in lemon juice.  Chill.


4 cups sliced fresh strawberries

1 Tablespoon sugar, optional (but I say yes)

Spread chilled mixture over bottom of prepared pie shell.  Arrange strawberries on top.  Sprinkle with sugar if desired.


1 1/2 cups heavy cream

1 Tablespoon confectioners' sugar

Beat cream until almost stiff.  Gradually add sugar.  Beat until stiff.  Spread over fruit filling.


Fresh mint leaves

Fresh Strawberries

Garnish each serving with a mint leaf and a strawberry.


For over achievers - here is their recipe for the pie crust:

1 cup flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup Crisco

2-4 Tablespoons ice water

Spoon flour lightly into cup.  Level off.  Sift flour and salt together in bowl.  Cut in Crisco with pastry blender until mixture forms particles slightly larger than grains of rice.  Sprinkle with ice water, 1 Tablespoon at a time.  Toss gently with fork until all particles are uniformly moistened and will barely stick together.  Shape mixture into a ball.  Roll out on lightly floured pastry cloth and place in pie pan.  Prick dough generously with fork.  Bake at 425 degrees fro 12 to 15 minutes, or until crust is lightly browned.


Enjoy - and let me know how it goes!

  • Immediately after losing 1.3 BTC to a fraudulent investment platform, I began looking for a genuine crypto recovery agent who could assist me in retrieving my assets from the crooks. During this procedure, I was defrauded of approximately $8,000 by imposters posing as professional representatives. I have simply given up and abandoned all chance of regaining my lost Bitcoin. However, owing to a blog comment I read on Forbes that recommended a reliable recovery service named Cyptocrimefighter247, I immediately contacted them and submitted all the transaction data; they informed me that the investigation and recovery had commenced. In roughly two weeks, my coins were returned to my wallet. The nicest thing about this recovery firm is that they do not charge an advance fee; they are paid from the monies they collect. I greatly value their efforts and would suggest them to anyone who requires a crypto recovery agent. You may email them at сурtосrіmеfіghtеr247(аt)gmаіl.соm

  • Weeks of interactions with three succeeding account managers; daily promises never fulfilled! It is an extremely deceitful and evil system that makes you believe you have large winnings in your account and must pay to get them back; however, we never receive anything, and every day we are informed we must pay a little bit more for whatever reason! I lost a substantial amount in the end! After making a formal report to zarchxbt, I’m relieved to have eventually escaped their grasp. It felt wonderful to be repaid. This recovery agent can be reached by email (zarchxbt@gmailcom).
