Glazed starawberry pie
Mrs. Joseph w. Ruzick

1 1/2 quarts starwberries
1/2 cup water
1 cup sugar
2 1/2 Tablespoons cornstarch
1 Tablespoon butter
red food coloring
1 baked 9-inch pie shell

Wash, drain and hull strawberries. Place 1 quart of berries in pastry shell. Crush 1/2 quart of berries and combine with water, sugar and cornstarch. Boil 2 minutes or until clear. Add enough butter and enough coloring to give a bright color. Strain. Spoon strawberry glaze over berries, making sure all berries are covered. Cool. Before serving cover with whipped cream.



Hint: if using large berries, I would slice them.
