How to Make Bubby's Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Make the pie crust: In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  4. Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate.
  6. In a large bowl, combine sugar, cornstarch, strawberries, rhubarb, and lemon juice. Mix gently.
  7. Pour the fruit filling into the pie crust.
  8. Roll out the remaining dough and either place it over the filling or cut into strips for a lattice top.
  9. Crimp the edges to seal. Brush the top crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with turbinado sugar (optional).
  10. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil.
  11. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your slice of Brooklyn!
