Week #41 June 6 - 12

I have been on the hunt for rhubarb for about 3 weeks now. I finally found it this past week, and made a strawberry rhubarb pie, out of my Bubby's book. Even though I know its popular, I've never had strawberry rhubarb pie. I really had no idea what to expect in terms of cooking and trying it.



As you can see from the picture above, it turned out rather soupy and watery. It tasted good, but the ingredients didn't hold together as well as I think they should have. The recipe called for flour as the thickener, but if I were to make this again, I would use an extra tablespoon or two of cornstarch.

My co-workers all enjoyed it though, and people seemed to really enjoy the crust.
