Bubby's Strawberry Rhubarb Pie image

Bubby is a common Yiddish term of affection. It is also the name of a popular local restaurant with outlets in Brooklyn and Manhattan. This is their rendition of one of my favorite desserts. Waiting for rhubarb season to try it.

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 double crust pie crust
3 cups fresh strawberries (halved or thickly sliced)
3 cups rhubarb, cut into 3/8 to 1/2 inch pieces
1 cup sugar
4 1/2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cut into pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons orange zest
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar, to dust top

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.
