Strawberry rhubarb pie alongside elderflower




Strawberry rhubarb pie is 1 of those classics that I absolutely adore. And that's just why I hesitated a chip earlier adding elderflowers to the mix. But I'm glad to nation it turned out so good , amongst only a hint of elderflower flavor. Perfect.

I know it looks similar this pie has a huge pool inward the bottom , but it doesn't , really. I was eager to photograph the within too allow it cool only 1 1/2 hours which is non plenty to allow it theater upwardly completely.. I know , my bad. And it's definitely non soupy similar many other strawberry rhubarb pies I've tried. I macerate the fruit too and then create the liquids earlier I add together them dorsum to the pie (don't desire to lose whatsoever of that precious flavor!). I know it sounds similar many steps to larn through but I highly recommend trying it , to avoid a soggy pie bottom.



And for those of y'all who are interested , I made a footling lattice guide. Check it out below! Oh , too misfortunate for blocking the sentiment amongst my caput so many times.. hehe.








STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE
WITH ELDERFLOWER
yields 1 pie , 8-9 inch pan

Strawberry too rhubarb tend to pose out a lot of juice when baked , so , I macerate the fruit amongst saccharide too flavoring so they pose out some of the liquid (and I tell y'all , it's a lot! I in all probability had closed to 2 cups). I too then create the liquid amongst cornstarch until it thickens. This is to avoid a soggy bottom inward a double crusted pie. The fruit also shrinks a footling chip when doing this , so y'all don't larn that gap betwixt the filling too the crust!
Feel complimentary to add together some other flavoring inward house of elderflower. Cinnamon or cardamom would live delicious.
