Zendeas Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Recipes

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.

ZENDEA'S STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place 1 cup of sugar into a saucepan, and mix in the rhubarb; add butter, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until the rhubarb is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the strawberries, and set aside. Let cool to lukewarm. Beat the eggs in a bowl until frothy, and mix into the rhubarb mixture.
• Unroll the pie crusts, and line an 8-inch pie dish with a crust; pour the filling into the bottom crust. Place the second crust on top of the pie, and press the edges together. Crimp edge with a fork to seal. Cut 4 1-inch slits in the top of the crust with a sharp knife. Pour milk into a small bowl, and brush top crust with milk; sprinkle pie with 3 more tablespoons of sugar.
• Bake the pie in the preheated oven until the crust is golden and the filling is set, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Allow pie to cool before cutting. Refrigerate leftovers.

RENEE'S STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water until thoroughly combined. Stir in the rhubarb, strawberries, white sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to stand for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place bottom crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Roll the remaining crust out into a 10-inch circle on a floured work surface, and set aside.
• Stir the filling, and pour into the prepared pie dish. Cut the remaining crust into 1-inch wide strips (use a scalloped edge pastry cutter for a prettier crust). Moisten the rim of the filled bottom crust with a bit of water, and lay the two longest strips in a cross in the middle of the pie. Working from the next longest down to the shortest strips, alternate horizontal and vertical strips, weaving the strips as you go. Press the lattice strips down onto the bottom crust edge to seal, and trim the top crust strips neatly. Beat the egg white with 1 teaspoon of water in a small bowl, and brush the entire lattice top with the beaten egg white. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Wrap aluminum foil strips around the edges of the pie.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and bake until the crust is browned and the filling is bubbling, 40 to 45 more minutes. Remove the aluminum foil for the last 10 minutes of baking time. Allow pie to cool completely before serving.

• Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1/2 inch from rim of plate. Roll other round of pastry. Fold into fourths and cut slits so steam can escape. Place pastry over filling and unfold. Trim overhanging edge of top pastry 1 inch from rim of plate. Fold and roll top edge under lower edge, pressing on rim to seal; flute. Sprinkle with additional sugar if desired.
• Cover edge with 2- to 3-inch strip of aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning. Remove foil during last 15 minutes of baking. Bake about 55 minutes or until crust is golden brown and juice begins to bubble through slits in crust. Serve warm or cool.
