GRANDMA'S STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• Crust Preparation:
• Using 2 pastry blenders, blend the flours, sugar, shortening, butter and salt. Whisk the egg, vinegar and water in a 2-cup measure and pour over the dry ingredients incorporating all the liquid without overworking the dough. Toss the additional flour over the ball of dough and chill if possible. Divide the dough into 2 disks. Roll out 1 piece of dough to make a bottom crust. Place into a pie dish. Put dish in refrigerator to chill.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Filling Preparation:
• Mix the rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, tapioca, flour, zest and juice of lemon, dash of cinnamon, and vanilla. Mix well in a large bowl and pour out into chilled crust. Dot the top of the filling with the butter. Brush edges of pie crust with egg white wash. Roll out the other piece of dough and place over filling. Crimp to seal edges. Brush with egg white wash and garnish with large granule sugar. Collar with foil and bake at 425 degrees F for 15 minutes. Decrease temperature to 375 degrees F and bake for an additional 45 to 50 minutes, or until the filling starts bubbling. Higher altitude will take 450 degrees F and 400 degrees F respectively. Also, you can use a pie bird for extra decor. Let cool before serving.

STRAIGHT-UP RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Make the crust: before measuring the flour, stir it to leaven with air and then measure out 2 cups. Combine the flour, salt and sugar in a large bowl and fluff with a fork. Cut the shortening into the flour with a fork or pastry blender. Stop as soon as the sheen of the butter disappears and the mixture is a bunch of coarse pieces. Sprinkle a tablespoon of water at a time over the dough, lifting and tossing it with the fork. When it begins to come together, gather the dough, press it into a ball and then pull it apart; if it crumbles in your hands, it needs more water. (It's better to err on the side of too wet than too dry.) Add a teaspoon or two more water, as needed.
• Gather the dough into two slightly unequal balls, the larger one for the bottom crust and the smaller one for the top. Flatten the larger ball, reforming any frayed edges with the sides of your hand. Dust with flour and roll the dough, starting from the center and moving toward the edges. Take a knife or thin spatula and quickly work its edge between the crust and the counter top. Lift the dough to the side; dust the dough and counter top with flour. Roll again until the diameter is an inch or 2 larger than that of the pie pan. Lay the rolling pin a third of the way from one of the edges. Roll the crust onto the pin and then unroll the crust into a 9-inch pie pan and press it into place. Place in the freezer.
• Make the filling: in a large bowl, blend the rhubarb, sugar, flour and cinnamon. Pour into the crust-lined pie pan. Dot with butter.
• Roll out the top crust. Dab the rim of the bottom crust with water to create a glue. Then place the top crust over the rhubarb; trim, seal and cut several vents. Bake for 15 minutes; reduce the temperature to 350 degrees and bake 25 to 30 minutes more, or until a bit of pink juice bubbles from the vents in the crust.

RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• Place the pie dough on a floured piece of parchment paper. Using your knuckles, press edges of dough to help prevent cracking. Roll out dough to a 14-inch round.
• Use the parchment to lift and wrap dough around rolling pin; carefully unroll over a 9-inch pie plate. Gently fit dough into bottom and sides of plate, being careful not to stretch or tear. Using kitchen shears, trim dough to a 1-inch overhang; fold under, and press gently to seal. Crimp edges if desired. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. with rack in lowest level. In a large bowl, toss rhubarb with sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Pour into pie shell; sprinkle with Crumble Topping. Place pie on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet.

OLD FASHIONED RHUBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Prepare pie crust according to pkg. directions for 2 crust pie or make homemade pastry for 2 crust 9" pie.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• In large bowl, combine all filling ingredients. Toss lightly.
• Spoon into crust-lined pan.
• Top with second crust. Seal edges and flute. Cut slits in top crust.
• Bake at 400°F for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown.
• Cover edge of crust with strips of foil after 15-20 minutes of baking to prevent excessive browning.

RHUBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Bring pie crusts to room temp, as directed on package. When crusts are at room temp, handling them the way the box instructions tell you, put one of them into a 9" pie plate. (If you prefer to make a home-made crust for a two-crust pie, that's great! Go for it! ha!) Preheat oven to 400°.
• In a large bowl, toss the fruit w/ the lemon juice, to coat.
• Mix in all other filling ingredients. Toss filling ingreds. gently, to mix.
• Spoon into crust-lined pie plate.
• Cut up the second crust into small rectangles, about 2" x 1-1/2" in size. [Hint: use a pizza cutter to do this; makes it really easy!] Lay these small rectangles across the pie filling, alternating rows, leaving about an inch between squares [to look like a checkerboard pattern]. Corners of the crust pieces should touch, from row to row. Take remaining pieces and line the edge of the pie crust with them, overlapping, if necessary. (See JAP's version of the checkerboard top in their photo, above). TIP: use a small cookie cutter instead of cutting 2nd crust into rectangles. Lay cookie cutter shapes on top of filling for a creative look! I use my heart- or star- or flower-shaped bread tubes as cutters; the shapes look great on top of pies! I used the flower-shaped bread tube in the main recipe photo).
• Brush the crust with the milk, using a soft pastry brush. Friends from where I used to live in New England call this "washing its face!" Sprinkle the coarse sugar onto the milky crust.
• Cover the crust edge with foil, to prevent excessive browning HINT: instead of using several thin strips of foil around edges, and fighting w/them to stay on, try this ... tear off a square of foil, and cut a circle out of the middle, leaving a "frame" of about 2" to cover the outer edge of the pie. Remove foil during the last 15 - 20 minutes of baking time.
• Bake for approx 45 - 50 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly in the middle and the crust is a pretty golden brown. PROTECT YOUR OVEN by putting pie onto a cookie sheet before putting in the oven. If it boils over, you'll have a real red/purple mess! Cool to room temp before serving.
