You can carefully arrange in a symetrical pattern the top layer of strawberries on this lucious pie — or not. Fresh Strawberry Pie will delight regardless of how the strawberries are placed. If you want to go the decorative route, however, chop most of the strawberries into small pieces and reserve the larger, more photogenic strawberries for the top layer. This will make your lovely pie easier to cut. And don’t forget the whipped cream.

This a generous recipe, so a regular 9-inch pie shell may not accommodate it. To ensure complete success, use a deep-dish 9-inch shell, or a regular 10-inch shell instead.
