Recipe - Plymouth Cranberry Pie

4 cup Cranberries
1 One half cup Sugar
3 tablespoon Cornstarch
1 Egg; lightly beaten
One half teaspoon Almond extract
Pastry for a 2crust; 9inch
pie

Have you ever tried a cranberry pie? I hadn't, and it's not likely that
you have either. In Colonial times this was a populartreat, using the
native American berries.

Preheat the oven to 400ø. Wash and pick over cranberries; drain
thoroughly. Chop cranberries and mix with sugar and cornstarch. Mix egg and
almond extract and combine with cranberries. Line a 9inch pie plate with
half the pastry. Add cranberry mixture. Cover with strips of pastry
arranged in a lattice, and seal edges. Bake 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350ø
and continue baking about 35 minutes, or until cranberries are soft and
pastry is browned.
