Ingredients: One large, deep-dish 9-inch graham cracker crust 1/3 cup (51 g) cornstarch 1/3 cup (76 g) cold water 6 cups (978 g) hulled, coarsely-chopped strawberries, fresh or frozen, about 1 1/2 pounds 1 cup (203 g) sugar 1/4 teaspoon (1 g) salt 1 tablespoon (13 g) butter 1/2 teaspoon (1.5 g) vanilla or almond extract 1 1/4 cups (297 g) heavy cream 2 cups (326 g) fresh strawberries, sliced (optional) Directions In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and the 1/3 cup cold water. Stir to combine well, dissolving any lumps. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries, sugar, and salt. Cook over medium heat, bringing the mixture to a gentle boil. Cook until the berries form a sauce, approximately 3 to 5 minutes. Make sure the cornstarch-water mixture is well blended, then add it to the cooked strawberry sauce.
