The Disappearing Rhubarb Peach Pie Food

PEACH RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• Prepare pie crust and chill until ready to use.
• Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• In a large bowl, toss chopped peaches and rhubarb with sugar, flour and salt.
• Spread evenly in prepared pie crust. Place pie crust over a baking sheet to catch any bubble overs and bake for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix together streusel ingredients until crumbly.
• After 30 minutes of baking, remove pie from oven and sprinkle with streusel topping. Return to the oven and lower temperature to 375°F.
• Bake for an additional 20 minutes, covering crust with a pie shield if it starts getting too dark.
• The filling should be really bubbly and thickened when it's done. If it isn't return to the oven for 5 more minutes until it is, otherwise you'll have a soupy pie.
• Serve warm or at room temperature with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• To make the crust: Have all of your ingredients ready and chilled. Combine the flour, salt and sugar in a food processor. Add the butter and lard. Use the food processor to work the butter and lard into the flour. Work the fats into the flour until it starts to stick together when squeezed, but you want to keep some of the fat in pea-size pieces. If it is too soft and it won't stay in pieces, place the bowl in the freezer for about 15 minutes and then try again.
• Whisk the egg, add it along with the water and vinegar to the flour/lard mixture. Stir this with your hand or a wooden spoon, but be very gentle. The goal is to keep the pea-size chunks of fat intact. It will start to look shaggy and not dry. It should hold together when you squeeze it in your hand. Gently knead the dough into a ball. Divide the dough into two pieces and create round disks. Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate for at least an hour, or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F with the rack on the bottom shelf.
• In a large bowl, toss together the rhubarb, cherries, sugar, cornstarch and spices. Roll out one of the circles of dough and drape it into the pie plate. Place the filling in the pie shell. Break the butter up into several pieces and put it over the filling.
• Weave the lattice over the top. Crimp the edges. Brush the top with egg wash.
• Sprinkle generously with sugar.
• Place the pie on a baking sheet, just in case the juices bubble over.
• Bake for 30 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F, bake until the juices are bubbling and translucent, and the fruit is very soft. This can take up to 1 1/2 hours. If the top crust starts to get too much color, tent the pie loosely with foil.
• Allow the pie to cool so the juices set enough to cut the pie.
• Enjoy with ice cream.

THE DISAPPEARING RHUBARB PEACH PIE

Steps:

• For Crust: Cut shortening into flour and salt until crumbles form. Make well in center and add 1 tablespoon of water at a time and toss with a fork until flour becomes wet. Add each additional tablespoon of water. Flour should be completeley moistened and forming a ball. Divide ball in half and roll each half to 2-inches larger than an inverted pie plate. Gently place one shell into pie plate. Save other shell for top. For Pie Filling: Heat oven to 425*. Mix flour and sugar. Combine rhubarb and peaches and place half of the mixture in the pie shell. Sprinkle half of the flour-sugar mixture on top. Repeat with remaining rhubarb-peach mixture and then flour-sugar mix. Dot with margarine/butter. Cover with top pie crust. Cut slits in top of crust; seal and flute crust. Cover edge with 3-inches of foil to prevent browning. Remove for last 15 minutes of cooking. Bake at 425* for 40-50 minutes or until crust browns and juice begins to bubble through crust. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

FRESH PEACH AND RHUBARB PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• FOR THE CRUST: In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, combine the flour and salt. Process briefly to blend. Add the butter and shortening and process until the mixture resembles coarse meal, 5-10 seconds. With the motor running, gradually add the egg yolk, lemon juice, and just enough of the ice water for the dough to come together and hold a shape when pressed. Remove the dough from the processor, divide into 2 pieces, one slightly larger than the other, and flatten into 2 thick disks. Wrap the disks in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours. FOR THE FILLING: In a large bowl, combine the rhubarb, peaches, lemon juice, sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and flour and toss until mixed. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the larger of the 2 disks into a round about 11 inches in diameter. Gently ease the pastry round into a deep 9-inch pie plate and press into the plate, crimping the edges about 1/2 inch above the level of the plate rim. Brush the pie crust with the egg-water mixture. Spoon the filling into the dish. On the lightly floured work surface, roll out the remaining disk into a round about 10 inches in diameter. Using another pie plate as a guide, cut out a 9-inch round from the dough. Cut the round into strips 1 inch wide. Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F. Brush the edge of the bottom crust with a little more of the egg-water mixture. Lay a row of dough strips 3/4 inch apart across the top of the pie. Press the ends firmly to the edge of the crust. Lay the remaining strips in the opposite direction, again pressing them firmly to the edge. Flute the edge decoratively. Brush the pastry edge and strips with the egg-water mixture. Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F. and continue baking until golden brown and bubbling, 35-45 minutes. (Check the pie during baking and cover the edges with aluminum foil if the crust begins to overbrown.) TO SERVE: Transfer to a rack and let cool for at least 20 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

FRESH RHUBARB PIE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450*F.

• 3. Place pie on lowest rack in oven. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350*F., and continue baking for 40 to 45 minutes. Serve warm or cold, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
• My Note: My 10-year-old grandson was determined to make this by himself, never having done anything like this before. This was the best pie! (and not just because I'm his Grpa). So simple -- so easy! I thought for sure that it would turn out too sweet because it seemed like a lot of sugar. But it was perfect! You still get that tart zip of the rhubarb that I love! I also added some cinnamon to the sugar mixture.just because I love that flavor. Make sure to put some of the sugar mixture on the bottom like the recipe states. This forms a layer under the rhubarb while baking, so that the crust doesn't get soggy. My D/W, late dad said that this pie tastes almost identical to the one his Mom used to make. That alone will make me use this recipe over and over again! Update 1/05 Don't bother with the butter; you don't need it at all. And do NOT----mix up the flour/sugar mixture with the fruit before adding the fruit to the pie shell. The reason you want copious amounts of sugar both on the bottom and on the top of the fruit (rather than mixed amongst it) is that while baking, the bubbling-hot sugar carmelizes in contact with the bottom and top crusts, a process which makes the crusts rather crispy in the final product. If you mix the sugar up with the fruit, you don't get that crispy crust, and the large amount of water in the rhubarb will definitely make the bottom crust sodden. Don't worry: the sugar makes its way through the fruit anyway, so you won't have parts of the pie too sweet and other parts too tart. Update: I won $100 for 1st prize in a rhubarb pie baking contest with this recipe. The only thing I did different, since I used green rhubarb, was tint the sugar with 2 drops of red food coloring before adding the flour. I also sprinkled a little sugar on top the crust. I used Pie Crust I from this site. Update 5/20/07: I won the rhubarb pie contest and the $100 prize again yesterday with this recipe. Since I made a 10 inch pie, I used 5 cups rhubarb, 1 2/3 cups sugar, 7 1/2 T flour, and 1 T butter. I added 3 drops red food color to the sugar. This pie is definitely a winner!
