Blue Ribbon Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Recipes

AWARD-WINNING STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• 1. Mix the rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, tapioca, and lemon juice. Let sit on the counter for 30 minutes.
• 2. Meanwhile, using a fork, poke holes in the pie crust. Add parchment paper and pie weights. Then lightly bake the bottom of the pie crust for 5-10 minutes.
• 3. Cool pie crust.
• 4. Pour in the filing. Dot with small pieces of butter.
• 5. Then cover with other pie crust in whatever fashion you want.
• 6. Bake on 400 degrees for 40-45 min. I like to cover the outside edge of the crust with aluminum foil so it doesn't burn (or use a pie crust shield). Then towards the end of the baking time, I take it off to make sure it's the same color as the rest of the pie crust.
• 7. Let stand before serving.

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare pastry and prebake bottom crust for 8 to 10 minutes until cooked. Mix together well all pie filling ingredients except butter in a large bowl. Pour filling into prebaked bottom pie crust and dot with butter. Top with remaining pastry crust and make air vent slits (you can also do a lattice crust which is very pretty with the rosy juices from the pe).
• Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes and then, drop temperature to 350 degree and bake another 45 to 60 minutes or until done and crust is nicely browned. Since ovens vary a great deal, it is best to watch your pie carefully the first time you make this to determine how long it will take in your specific over. Enjoy!

BUBBY'S STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• Prepare your favorite pie crust or use store-bought. Either way, they should be good and cold. Roll out the bottom crust and place in pie pan.
• Clean and slice the rhubarb and strawberries and place in a large bowl.
• Cover the fruit with the sugar, flour, zest and salt. Toss lightly as you would were this a salad.
• Place the mixture into the pie pan. Dot the pie with the butter slices. Cover with top crust, crimping the tops and bottoms so that the pie is well sealed.
• Chill the pie in the freezer briefly, about 20 minutes. Cut vent slits on the top crust and dust the top with the sugar.
• While the pie is chilling pre-heat oven to 475 degrees.
• Place the pie on a cookie sheet with a lip to catch drippings. For easy clean up line the sheet with foil. Bake the pie for 10 minutes or until the top crust appears dry and lightly blistered.
• Reduce the cooking heat to 350 degrees. Bake an additional 30-40 minutes. The exact time varies from one oven to another. Pie crust should be golden and flaky.
• Allow pie to cool completely before serving.
• Storage suggestion: Bubby's suggest that the pie should be stored uncovered for up to 2 days so that the crust can remain crisp.
