Though not the biggest fan of rhubarb, I do enjoy the mix of rhubarb with strawberries and , of course, plenty of sugar! I tried out a new (to me) recipe from a book that has long found its home in my kitchen, Granny Stark's Search for The Perfect Fruit Pie, put out by Storey Publishing. The recipe was submitted by a Georgiann Carroll. We thoroughly enjoyed this pie which entails using orange marmalade!
Rhubarb-Strawberry Pie
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp grated orange rind
1/4 tsp salt
4 cups sliced rhubarb
2 cups slice strawberries
2 Tbl melted marmalade (any kind)
uncooked pie shells
2 Tbl butter
1/4 cup orange liqueur
Combine rhubarb and strawberries into sugar mixture.
Brush bottom of pie shell with marmalade (see photo below)
Place fruit on marmalade.
Dot with butter.
Sprinkle with orange liqueur.
I didn't have this, so I took 1/2 of the orange that I zested and squeezed it over the pie. Seemed to work fine.
Bake for 1 hour.
I found the pie needed to cool in order for it to set up and not be syrupy. You can serve it with vanilla ice cream, or eat it al la carte! Either way, it is pretty dang delicious!
