GRANDMA'S RHUBARB PIE

Grandmas always have a hard time giving a recipe away because its a little bit of this and a handful of that, but I was able to get this out of MY Grandma! If you like it sweeter, use 1 cup of sugar. I like it tart so I use 3/4 cup sugar. Frozen rhubarb works fine.

Tips:

  • Prep the rhubarb properly: Trim the ends and wash the rhubarb thoroughly. Cut it into small pieces for even cooking.
  • Use fresh rhubarb: Fresh rhubarb has a vibrant color and a tart flavor that complements the sweetness of the filling.
  • Don't overcook the rhubarb: Overcooked rhubarb becomes mushy and loses its texture. Cook it just until it is tender but still holds its shape.
  • Chill the torte before serving: Chilling the torte allows the flavors to meld and the filling to set. This makes it easier to slice and serve.
  • Serve with whipped cream or ice cream: A dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream adds a creamy richness that complements the tartness of the rhubarb.

Conclusion:

Grandma's Rhubarb Torte is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, tangy rhubarb filling, and sweet streusel topping, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. Follow these tips to make the best Grandma's Rhubarb Torte:
