Directions

The book says “a hot oven”. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

  1. Place whole fresh strawberries in a baked pie crust.

  2. Prepare cream filling as for a cream pie and pour it over the strawberries.

  3. Cover the pie with meringue.

  4. Brown the meringue quickly in a 400°F (200°C) oven.

  5. Ensure the strawberries and cream filling are cold before assembling the pie.

  6. Serve immediately after preparation.
