Ingredients:

• 1 9 inch pie crust, baked and cooled
• 6 cups strawberries (about 1 1/2 quarts)
• 1 cup sugar, or less depending on the sweetness of the strawberries
• 1/4 cup corn starch
• 1/2 cup water

Directions:

Mash enough berried to equal 1 cup. Stir together sugar and corn starch in a saucepan. Gradually stir in the water and crushed berries. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and boils. Boil for 1 minute, until clear. Cool.

Fill the pie shell with whole berries. Pour the cooled strawberry mixture over top. Chill at least 3 hours, until set.
