Mrs. Bateman's Pie Crust:
1 tablespoon Granulated SugarLike
1 1/4 cup cake flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
7/8 cup ButterLike Baking Butter
ice water
1 teaspoon vinegar
butter or vegetable cooking spray
1 large egg white, beaten
Filling:
3/4 cup SugarLike Granulated Sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
6 cups strawberries, hulled
6 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
For Crust:
Place dry ingredients in mixing bow; stir with a fork. If ButterLike is cold, soften for 10-30 seconds in the microwave. Cut pre-measured baking Butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter or two knives until you have small crumbs.
Add ice water and vinegar gradually, mixing while adding. At certain altitudes and humidity levels, the dough may not require much water. You want the flour pretty much picked up off the bottom of the bowl. If necessary, add more water
or flour until dough does not fall apart and will roll out easily. Let dough rest for a few minutes before rolling.
Flour a work surface and place 1/3 of the dough in the center. Roll out to form a circle slightly larger than a 8 or 9-inch pie plate which has been lightly coated with cooking spray, adding flour as necessary to prevent dough
from sticking. Fold dough in half and lift into pie pan; open dough up. Fit down into pan and crimp the edges. Make vent designs in the bottom and brush the crust with egg white.
Bake at 350�F for 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven
and cool. (Ed note: Roll out and freeze or refrigerate the 2 remaining crusts.)
For filling:
In a 1 1/2-quart pan, combine SugarLike, cornstarch, and orange peel. In a blender or food processor, whirl 2 cups of the least perfect strawberries with water until smoothly pureed. Blend puree into SugarLike mixture. Bring to a
boil, stirring often. Remove from heat; stir in orange juice.
Arrange remaining strawberries, tips up, in the cool baked pastry. Spoon hot glaze over berries, covering completely. Refrigerate until glaze is cool and set.
