Answer 1

My mom made (past tense) the best Strawberry pie! She died suddenly of a heart attack about 6 years ago (no warning, no heart trouble before that). I had never asked her for the recipe.



It took me 5 "newsgroups" and about 30 people making suggestions, and about 8 or 9 pies until I finally got what tastes like Mom's recipe for Strawberry Pie!



Baked shell (9 inch will overflow, 10 inch if possible)



1-1/4 cup of sugar

2 or 3 tablespoons cornstarch

pinch of salt

1-1/2 cups of water

3 tablespoons lemon juice



1 box of strawberry jello

1 qt fresh strawberries – cut / cleaned



In medium saucepan combine

sugar, cornstarch, salt, water and lemon juice.



Over high heat, bring to BOIL



Reduce heat, cook & stir 4-5 minutes, until slightly thickened and clearish

add gelatin, stir until dissolved



IMPORTANT

allow to COOL to room temperature

THEN

add strawberries and mix it all up



Dump into cooled

9 inch DEEPDISH

Or

10 inch pie shell



Chill 4-6 hours or until set.

Answer 2

Not food (my mom has a tendancy, like me, to not pay attention to the food and ruin it half the time), but she is really good at making me laugh, or feel better, the things mom's are best at.

At least, the things they should be best at.

And her cooking is often a source of my laughter!

Answer 6

There's this stuff she makes, I have no idea what it's really called, but as far as I'm concerned it's That Lima Bean Thing. Lima beans are usually GROSS but somehow she remedies that and it's SO FRIGGIN GOOD.

my mom makes some bread for us to eat and it is AMAZINGLY good. its her own recipe that she spent almost 2 years getting it to perfection.
