Today I felt like making Rhubarb Strawberry Pai and Rhubarb Lemonade.
Rhubarb lemonade was very easy:
- Wash and cut rhubarb into small pieces (don't peel it first!)
- Boil them in water for 10-15 min (don't use too much water!)
- Pour into another pot through a colander to get all the small pieces out
- Add sugar and boil the lemonade for a few minutes
- Remove any foam you see
- Add lemon juice (as much or little as you want)
Serve cold
The lemonade while boiling...
You need a lot of rhubarb to get a little... four or five 12-16 inch long pieces makes between 1-2 cups.
Rhubarb Strawberry Pai
You need:
- Pai Crust
- Rhubarb (5-6 pieces about 12-16 inches long each)
- Strawberries ( +/- 1 lb )
- 1 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tsp corn starch
Put the pai crust down first, then layer rhubarb and strawberries. (I did rhubarb, strawberries, rhubarb strawberries) Peel the rhubarb and cut into about 1 inch pieces and then in half.
Mix the corn starch in with the sugar, then pour the mix over the pai.
Lay pay crust on top of the pai.
Bake on 400F for about 30-40 minutes. Serve with ice cream or an egg cream.
Here is pictures from the process.
Half way done layering.
Ready to be baked :)
Ready to be enjoyed :) Anyone wants to help us out?
