INSTRUCTIONS
Pie crust: Combine flour, sugar, and salt in medium bowl; cut in margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add water, a tbsp at a time, mixing with fork until dough forms. Roll 1/2 of the pastry on lightly floured surface into circle 1 1/2" larger than inverted 9" pie pan. Ease pastry into pan. Drain cherries, reserving 3/4 cup cherry juice. Mix remaining 17 tsp equal, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tbsp flour, reserved cherry juice, nutmeg, and food color in small saucepan; heat to boiling, whisking constantly. Boil, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute. Sprinkle remaining 2 tbsp cornstarch and 1 tbsp flour over cherries and toss; stir cherry juice mixture into cherries. Spoon cherry mixture into pastry. Roll remaining pastry on lightly floured surface to 1/8" thickness; cut into 1/2" strips. Lay pastry strips across top of pie and weave into lattice design. Trim ends of strips; fold edge of lower pastry over ends of strips and seal and flute edge.
