How to Make Blue Ribbon Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup strawberry preserves, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  2. Add 4 cups sliced strawberries, 2 cups chopped rhubarb, and 2 tablespoons tapioca.
  3. Gently toss to combine and let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the tapioca to absorb some of the juices.
  4. Adjust oven rack to the lower third of the oven.
  5. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  6. Prepare your favorite 9-inch pie crust and place it in a pie plate.
  7. Pour the strawberry rhubarb filling into the prepared pie crust.
  8. Top with your favorite pie crust design (lattice, full top crust, etc.). Crimp the edges to seal.
  9. Brush the top crust with 1 tablespoon of milk and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar.
  10. Place the pie on a foil-lined baking sheet to catch any drips.
  11. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the crust is a deep golden brown. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges loosely with foil.
  12. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set.
