Notes
An alternative to this recipe is to use equal amounts of rhubarb and strawberries (2 c each). You can also make pastry for a double crust and place pastry on top of filling. Cut slits in top to allow steam to escape, seal and flute edges. Brush top of pie with cold water and sprinkle with 1 T sugar. Bake at 425 for 40 to 50 minutes.
