The recipe is based on Fanny Farmer’s Baking Book by Marion Cunningham (Alfred A. Knopf, New York, 1984)
- 4 large stalks rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 3/8 inch dice
- 1 quart strawberries, washed, hulled, and sliced
- 1½ cups sugar
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- pie dough for a two-crust pie, rolled into two circles for a 9-inch pie crust
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
- turbinado sugar
- In a large bowl, combine the diced rhubarb and slice strawberries and set aside.
- In another large bowl, combine the sugar, flour, salt, and vanilla extract. Stir in the rhubarb and strawberries, mixing gently until the fruit is well coated (I know – rhubarb is technically not a fruit)
- Line a 9-inch pie pan with one of the circles of dough. Distribute the filling mixture evenly.
- Cut the butter into 16 pieces and dot the top of the filling.
- Cover with the second circle of dough. Seal and crimp the edges. Cut several vents in top crust.
- Mix thoroughly the egg and milk. Using a pastry brush, paint the mixture on the crust and then sprinkle with turbinado sugar
- Bake in the middle of an oven preheated to 450°F for 15 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 350°F and bake for an additional 35 minutes. Anticipate spillovers by placing the pie pan on a cookie sheet.
- When the crust is golden brown, remove from the oven and cool on a baking rack.
- Serve warm, preferably with a scoop of ice cream.
