Tangy and colorful, this pie is the essence of summer. Delightful on its own and even better with a scoop of cold vanilla ice cream, strawberry-rhubarb pie is practically impossible not to like. The flaky, buttery crust gives way to a tart and jammy filling, making for a not-too-sweet dessert that tingles every taste bud. While being raised on a farm I often ate rhubarb, so it's natural for me to use it in a pie. I prefer to use lard for the flaky pie crust and thin, red rhubarb stalks for the filling.
