Strawberry season is full swing. On Thursday my friend Faye, her two boys and I went picking (I was kicking myself that I forgot to bring the camera 'cause nothing says summer fun like a 1 1/2 year old covered in dirt 'n berries!) and then made some freezer jam.
I had just enough berries left over for this strawberry pie...

After glaze:
Hmmmm...different light sources...the glazed photo doesn't really look all that appetizing so you'll just have to take my word for it that IT IS!!!!
The pastry recipe is from Lucy Waverman and James Chatto's delectable cookbook A Matter Of Taste and the strawberry pie recipe was shared with my mum from the original owner of Billy's Downtown Deli in London, Ontario. Billy's has since changed owners, but we hear that it is still the place to go to sample to fresh Ontario flavours of this pie!
Now...all we need is some fresh whipped creme...
