Choke Berry Pie
Choke Berry Pie
1 9″ baked pie shell
2 cups choke berry juice (instructions following)
3 level tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup sugar
small pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups choke berry juice (instructions following)
3 level tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup sugar
small pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Cook juice, cornstarch, sugar, salt and extract in a pan
over medium heat until thick, stirring constantly. Cool.
Pour into pie shell and chill several hours until well set.
Serve with whipped cream or cream topping.
Choke berry juice:
Put berries in large saucepan over high heat and begin to smash berries.
The pits are hard and hard to break, but still be careful not to break them.
Simmer over medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes
(smaller amounts of berries will take much less time.)
Pour berries into a cheese cloth and drain the juice.
(It can take quite a few berries to get 2 cups of juice.)
