Loved this! I too used cornstarch instead of arrowroot the berries I used were a bit dry because they aren't in season here so I brushed the top with egg and sprinkled some sugar on top of egg. These were outstanding. I love Giadas recipes! The parcent strips helped lift tart right out. I also used a regular muffin pan and don't have cookie cutters so I used coffee cup as my cutter. If you are thinking of making these, do it!

I always love Giada's recipes, but I have tried this one twice and cannot get the strawberries and the pies to stay "full".. baked the bottoms as other's have said and it helped. Even cut the strawberries and tried to let them lose some of their juices, and the pies STILL evaporated on the insides to almost nothing. Cannot fill them high enough. Shame.

The strawberries are wonderful before being baked. After baking, they disappear along with 1/2 the contents in the pie and I had put in as much filling as I could get the pie to hold. I'll keep the recipe for the filling to use on something else but will not be baking these pies again.

Great taste, bottom crust was not done. I even pre baked it at 375 for 5 min.
How do you get the crust done. I was very disappointed.

YUMMY! I made this for a small potluck and will have to triple the recipe next time. I also used some of the other reviewers tips for blind baking and sweetening the berries (I used Splenda if you have less sweet berries. I just tried using a basalmic reduction in place of the honey which added a nice complex twist! I believe Giada has a recipe onsite for Basalmic glazed Strawberries for the reduction recipe

Was very good. I did the few modifications that people recommended on the site. 1. Used cornstarch instead of Arrowroot (not easy to find and when I did find it, it was expensive. Since I don't need it for another dish I wasn't going to buy it. 2. Prebaked the bottoms of the pies for five minutes. 3. I used half of a container of strawberries to make it. (The normal sizes you seen in the grocery stores, not the large one So I used more strawberries than she suggested. 4. Added the 1 tsp. of sugar to it. They turned out perfect. If I remember the episode right she said NOT to fill it to the top, but I did anyways so they wouldn't have hallow spots.

I Just Doubled The Recipe And Made It Into A Regular Whole Pie And It Turned Out Great ! I Substituted The Arrowroot With Cornstarch Though. You Should Try It! (:
