Strawberry and Rhubarb Pie
Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. During fresh strawberry and rhubarb season, be sure to make this pie and treat your family. The amount of sugar depends on your taste. Add half the amount at first, then adjust to taste. You can use either yeast dough or yeast-free dough; the latter will make the pie more crumbly. I used a baking pan measuring 14 by 20 centimeters. Serve warm or chilled. Ideal with tea.
