Raspberry Pie I
(from rosie’s recipe box)
I used 4 tabelspoons of water (instead of 6) because my berries were still wet from washing. I also added an additional tablespoon of tapioca. As far as tartness, that I’ve seen people mentione…again, it’s the ripeness of the berries and it’s hard to tell if you’re buying them in the store and can’t taste them. So try a berry before making the pie at home. If it’s too tart for your liking, add more sugar than the recipe requires. I added an additional 1/4 cup (total 1-1/2 cups).
