In baking you need to always have the ingredients measured precisely. Use a knife to level the flour, salt or baking powder since baking is relying on the chemistry. When you have an ingredient 'heaping' you have changed the chemistry!

Rhubarb Strawberry Pie

The sweet and tart flavor of this recipe of Rhubarb Strawberry Pie make it a family favorite.

3 cups (1 lb) fresh rhubarb
2 cups sliced strawberries
1½ cups sugar
¼ tsp nutmeg
¼ cup cornstarch
1 tbls butter
Double crust pastry

Preheat oven to 375 and put a layer of foil on the lower oven rack to catch spills. Cut up rhubarb into ½ inch pieces and put in large mixing bowl with strawberries.

In a small bowl, mix the sugar, cornstarch, and nutmeg. Add the sugar mix to the fruit and gently mix.

Pour the fruit into the shell and top with cut up butter. Cut slits in the top crust and place this on top of the filling. Seal the top crust to the bottom and flute the edges by pressing the dough with your thumb between your 1st and 2nd fingers. Bake for about 45 - 50 minutes. Vanilla ice cream on this pie is perfect.

Sutawnee loved rhubarb so much as a child, that she would eat it fresh dipped in a little sugar like it was candy. She kept a close eye on our rhubarb plants to see if there was enough ready for cutting.
