Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
This vegetarian pie is delicious and refreshing on a warm summer day! You’ll need rhubarb from two pounds of the stalks, strawberries from one pint (about eight ounces), sugar from one cupful to taste, flour as needed for thickening, butter or margarine as needed to cover pastry crusts (two nine-inch pie shells).
Pour boiling water over cut rhubarbs; simmer for fifteen minutes then skim off all scum when cold enough. Add berries that have been strained through a sieve so that only pulp remains – strain liquid again if desired – to measure two cups. Bring to boiling point and add sugar slowly, stirring constantly until it is dissolved; then continue cooking till mixture thickens enough for mashing – about fifteen minutes more. Mix in the flour which has been moistened with a little cold water or milk so that paste of smooth consistency can be made one teaspoonful at a time. Stir while adding butter or margarine (or use vegan substitutes); pour into hot pie crusts lined with pastry strips cut from broadcloth pieces.
