Tart rhubarb fresh from the garden, mixed with sweet strawberries from the local berry patch – and oh my word, this pie is delicious.

Fresh Rhubarb and Strawberry Pie With a Beautiful Lattice Top Crust

We have been enjoying the healthy harvest of rhubarb for many seasons now. It is one of the few vegetables we can get multiple crops off of in one growing season, and that alone is pretty awesome.

Well sell it bundled, and we also preserve it and freeze it.  You can make a lovely sauce with it, it is great in a cobbler, makes a wonderful jam, and what we like most of all, is this sweet and tart pie.  Not too sweet, and not too tart.  The perfect mix of both, I’d say.

Fresh versus Frozen Ingredients

I don’t think there can be any argument that fresh is better.  That being said, there are plenty of times when frozen is just as good.  If you’re in a climate where you can’t get access to fresh fruit and veggies all year round, it is totally acceptable to use frozen and canned varieties.  

Be mindful however, frozen strawberries will change the texture of this pie, so you’re best to grab a pint or so from the grocer
