BLUEBERRY RHUBARB PIE



Blueberry Rhubarb Pie image

The baker and pie coach Kate McDermott has many tricks to figure out when a pie is done, but her favorite is what she calls "the heartbeat of the pie." She listens for a sizzle that tells her that the fat in the crust is cooking the flour, and for a thumping sound that indicates that the simmering liquid is bumping up against the top crust. Also, watch for bubbling: This will tell you that the temperature is high enough that the thickeners have dissolved into the filling. All-berry pies can be too sweet and soft, so the tart crunch of rhubarb makes an ideal complement, especially in early spring. This glowing purple-magenta filling is quite spectacular.

Time 1h

Yield 1 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 11

Dough for a double-crust pie, chilled (see recipe; be sure to double it)
2 1/2 cups/312 grams rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 1/2- to 1-inch lengths
1 1/2 cups/226 grams blueberries or blackberries
3/4 cup/150 grams granulated sugar, more for sprinkling
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca (also called instant, minute or small pearl tapioca)
1/3 teaspoon salt
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon cold unsalted butter
1 egg white, whisked with 1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Roll out both crusts. Line a deep 9-inch pie pan with the bottom crust and return both crusts to the refrigerator.
  • In a medium bowl, combine rhubarb, berries, sugar, flour, tapioca, salt, nutmeg and lemon juice. Toss to coat and combine, then scoop into waiting bottom crust. The fruit should come up to within 1/2-inch of the rim of the pan; do not overfill. If necessary, add more or subtract some of the fruit. Break the butter into pieces and dot over the fruit.
  • Lay top crust over filling. Trim excess dough from the edges and crimp, then cut 6 or 7 vents on top. Brush a light coating of egg wash over the crust, including the edges.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees. Bake another 25 minutes, then open the oven and quickly sprinkle the crust with a thin coating of granulated sugar. Bake another 10 to 15 minutes, or until you see steady bubbling in the filling coming through the vents.
  • Remove pie from oven and listen to it: if the crust is sizzling, and the filling is audibly bubbling against the top crust, it is done. Let cool completely before serving.

AMAZING BLUEBERRY RHUBARB PIE

Time 3h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup light brown sugar
¼ cup quick-cooking tapioca
¼ teaspoon salt
3 cups diced rhubarb
3 cups fresh blueberries
1 pastry for a 9-inch double crust pie

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Stir white sugar, brown sugar, tapioca, and salt together in a large bowl. Add rhubarb and blueberries; toss to coat.
  • Divide the pie dough in half and roll each half out into a 9-inch round. Place 1 round of dough in the bottom of a pie plate. Pile rhubarb-blueberry mixture on top of the dough and top with the remaining dough round. Trim excess dough from the top crust to leave a 1/2-inch border below the top rim of the pie plate. Tuck the top edges of the crust under the bottom crust and crimp border together. Place pie plate on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes more. Cool for 2 hours.

BLUEBERRY-RHUBARB SLAB PIE



Blueberry-Rhubarb Slab Pie image

This slab pie is perfect for a party because it's easy to transport, and it serves a crowd. Convenience aside, the true draw of this sheet-pan pie is the flaky, buttery crust and its rhubarb, blueberry and crystallized ginger filling. Cooking the fruit ahead of time results in a filling that is juicy but not soupy - and prevents the crust from absorbing too much liquid. Preparing the pie dough in the food processor is effortless and helps keep the butter cold, which leads to a flakier crust, but be careful not to over-process: Stop when the mixture is moist but still crumbly.

Time 1h45m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/4 cups/290 grams all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup/225 grams cold unsalted butter (2 sticks), cut into pieces
Ice water, as needed
10 ounces/290 grams fresh rhubarb, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 2 1/2 cups)
4 1/2 cups/600 grams fresh blueberries
1/3 cup maple syrup
Pinch of kosher salt
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup/60 grams chopped crystallized ginger
1 large egg, beaten
3 tablespoons sparkling or sanding sugar

Steps:

  • Prepare the pastry: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture is the texture of coarse sand with some larger pieces of butter. Drizzle in 1/3 cup ice water and pulse the mixture about 5 times or until the mixture is crumbly, but evenly moistened and holds together when you squeeze a bit in your hands. Add up to 3 more tablespoons ice water, but stop before the mixture becomes too wet.
  • Tip the mixture out onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Using the plastic wrap, press the crumbs together. Divide the dough into thirds; tightly wrap one portion in plastic wrap, then combine the other two portions and wrap that larger piece of dough well in plastic wrap. Use a rolling pin to press both dough portions into two flat rectangles. Chill for at least 2 hours. (You can chill dough for up to 3 days in the fridge or freeze it for up to 3 months.)
  • Meanwhile, prepare the filling: In a small saucepan, combine the rhubarb, 3 cups blueberries, the maple syrup and salt. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb has started to break down and the blueberries have started to release some of their juices, about 10 minutes.
  • Transfer a few tablespoons of the liquid from the saucepan to a small bowl. Add the cornstarch and whisk until dissolved. Return the cornstarch mixture to the pan and cook, stirring, until the blueberry mixture has thickened, 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 1/2 cups blueberries and the ginger. Let this mixture cool completely.
  • On a lightly floured piece of parchment, roll the larger portion of dough into an 11-by-13-inch rectangle. Trim the edges into straight lines. Transfer the parchment with the dough to a rimmed baking sheet. Roll the smaller portion of dough out to a 7-by-15-inch rectangle on a floured piece of parchment. Using a fluted pastry wheel or a sharp knife, cut the dough lengthwise into seven 1-inch-thick strips.
  • Spread the filling over the uncut rectangle, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides. Lay the strips of pastry over the filling on the diagonal, spacing the strips about 1/2 inch apart. Trim the strips so that they are even with the edge of the rectangle. Fold the edges up and over the filling and the strips and press the corners to seal. (Press with the tines of a fork, if desired.) Wrap lightly with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 30 minutes (and up to 2 hours).
  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Using the parchment, transfer the chilled pie to another rimmed baking sheet. (You don't want to bake it on the cold sheet.) Brush the beaten egg all over the pastry and sprinkle with sanding sugar.
  • Bake until the pastry is deep golden brown and the filling is bubbling in spots, 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer pan to rack to cool for at least 1 hour before slicing.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 egg
1 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 cup diced rhubarb, if using frozen, thaw and drain well
1 cup blueberries, if frozen, thaw and drain well
2 tablespoons flour
3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup softened butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

  • In a small bowl, cut 3/4 cup flour, brown sugar, and butter together until pea-size clumps are formed. Sprinkle above mixture on top of pie filling.
  • Bake pie for 10 minutes. Lower heat to 350 degrees F and bake another 30-40 minutes until bubbly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rhubarb. Look for rhubarb stalks that are firm and brightly colored, with no signs of wilting or bruising. The leaves should be green and healthy-looking.
  • Prepare the rhubarb properly. Trim the ends of the rhubarb stalks and remove any leaves. Cut the stalks into 1-inch pieces.
  • Use a combination of sweet and tart blueberries. This will give the pie a well-balanced flavor. Fresh or frozen blueberries can be used.
  • Don't overcook the pie. The filling should be thick and bubbly, but the crust should not be overbrowned.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
