- Pastry for 2-crust pie
- 3 1/2 cups washed. stemmed elderberries
- 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup flour

Instructions
Spread elderberries in a pastry-lined 9" pie pan. Sprinkle with vinegar (or lemon juice. Combine sugar, salt and flour; sprinkle over berries. Dot with butter. Adjust top crust and flute edges; cut vents. Bake in hot oven (400 F.) 35 to 45b minutes, or until juices show in vents and crust is golden brown. Note: Use a wide-tooth comb to strip elderberries from their stems. (I used the tines of a fork...but the comb idea sounds better.)
