Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
Report
Old fashioned recipe thickened with tapioca. More strawberry, less rhubarb for just the right amount of tartness.

Ingredients
- 4 1/2 cups sliced ripe strawberries (small berries halved, large berries sliced)
- 1 1/2 cups rhubarb, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup minute tapioca
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 double pie crust recipe (like my Old Fashioned All-Butter Pie Crust)
- 1 large egg yolk (optional)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons turbinado sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Have your pie crusts rolled out and ready to go before you begin. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Place sliced and halved strawberries into a medium mixing bowl.
- Place rhubarb in the mixing bowl with the strawberries.
- Add sugar, minute tapioca pearls, and salt to the fruit. Stir for a minute or two until all the fruit is evenly coated with sugar, tapioca and salt.
- Pour the mixture into the lower crust of your pie.
- Cut the butter into small chunks and dot the top of the filling with it.
- Cover the pie with the upper crust. Seal the pie and crimp the edges. For detailed instructions on this, see my recipe for Old Fashioned All-Butter Pie Crust.
- I like to add an egg wash to the pie (optional)-- whisk together an egg yolk with 1 tsp of water, then brush the top of the pie lightly to coat it.
- Slit the top of the crust to make a few small vents. I like to sprinkle the top of the crust with turbinado sugar for a sparkly finish (optional).Place pie on a cookie sheet (in case the filling leaks) and place the pie in the oven. Let the pie cook for 10-15 minutes until the top of the crust begins to look golden and blistered.
- Turn oven down to 375 degrees F. Cook the pie for about 30 minutes longer, until the juices from the berry filling begin to thicken and bubble through the vents in the upper crust. Don't worry if the filling leaks out through the vents a bit, this is totally normal and hard to avoid with a juicy fruit pie. It's part of the charm. :)
- Remove pie from oven.
- Let pie cool on a wire rack for 2-3 hours. During this time, the juices will thicken and the filling will set.
- Serve and enjoy! Pie will stay fresh for about 3 days out of the refrigerator if kept in a cool, dry area. Keep in the refrigerator to extend shelf life for up to a week.
Notes
- Kosher Note: Filling is pareve; crust may be pareve (shortening), dairy (butter), or meat (lard) depending on preference
