Tips for Making the Perfect Pie

To ensure that your strawberry rhubarb pie turns out perfectly every time, here are a few tips to keep in mind:

  • Make sure your rhubarb is fresh and not tough. If it's tough, it can make the pie stringy and hard to eat.
  • Use a store-bought pie crust to save time and make the process easier, but if you have the time, making a homemade crust can take the pie to the next level.
  • Let the pie cool completely before cutting into it. This will allow the filling to set and make it easier to cut.
  • Top your pie with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream to take it to the next level.
