Comments on: Cindy Crawford’s Strawberry Pie http://www.notquitenigella.com/2008/09/15/cindy-crawfords-strawberry-pie/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

I've been curious about heirloom tomatoes too. Hi Lucinda-You are very lucky :) I wish had space and/or a garden to do that. I’ve been curious about heirloom tomatoes too.

In a total different league to store bought. If you are up to the challenge (mind you it is not very difficult) I think this is the only way to get true strawberry flavour. I buy the old fashion varieties from Diggers, and they even deliver them to my door! They are great for heirloom tomatoes too! Hi NQN, I grow my own strawberries in summer and they are very sweet!

I wonder can you get sweet strawberries anymore? I don't care if they're massive or not, just sweet!

I finally made it over the weekend, and while it was really tasty I would halve the sugar next time. It was a little jammy and too sweet for my liking - even with the tartness of the rhubarb. I would prefer to taste the freshness of the strawberries. Nethertheless it was all gone a couple of hours later! I saw this on Oprah, and was dieing to make it straight away!

I know, if I hadn't seen it for myself on Oprah I wouldn't have believed it either :lol: Thanks so much! Hi Nic-Yes you are! I remember we were talking about making it and you dove right in and baked it with great results so I had to make one. Yes it was just gorgeous and I don't think it needed the butter at all. So it's healthy right? ;) Hi Patricia-Me too! I know, if I hadn’t seen it for myself on Oprah I wouldn’t have believed it either :lol: Thanks so much!

I am not big on making my own pastry, but the use of oil instead of butter (and the fact that even a supermodel could make it) had me feeling brave. I agree it takes a bit of effort with the rolling, but nothing my weakling arms couldn't handle. I'm still giggling that we both forgot the butter. I don't think I'll bother with it in the future, and i can feel slightly less guilty about shoveling in a second piece :P I’m famous! :D

Hi Sandie-When I first said to friends, that's the first thing they thought of :lol: Who'd have thought that a supermodel would actually be cooking a great pie and sharing the recipe? Will wonders never cease? ;) Hi blythe-Now I'm afraid that's where I don't believe you. I don't think you've ever ordered a fruit dessert that didn't have some sort of chocolate or cream component. Hi Carolyn-My arms were a bit sore after it! I felt like I should take up weightlifting so that I can roll pastry easier :lol: Hi grace-At first I was upset about the ooze but then I embraced it :lol: Thankyou!
