RHUBARB CUSTARD PIE
In Grandmother's day, rhubarb was considered a "spring tonic". Although it's technically a vegetable, it is usually served as a fruit. At our house, we used the first rhubarb of the season to make this pie, and later in summer, we'd make a delicious drink with it, cooked, blended and mixed with strawberry punch.

RHUBARB CUSTARD PIE
Rhubarb, technically a vegetable, is known for its very tart flavor and the fact that only the stalks are edible. There are many varieties of rhubarb which account for how the stalks vary in color from a deep red to a pale green. Although the flavor is delicious on all kinds, this pie looks prettiest with the red-stalked varieties. Look for thinner stalks, they will be more tender and less fibrous than thicker stalks.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Fit the pie dough into a 9-inch pie plate, fluting the edges, and chill until set, about 15 minutes. Prick the bottom and sides with a fork, and then line the crust with aluminum foil. Fill with pie weights or dried beans and bake until the edges of the crust are just golden, 20 minutes. Remove the foil with the pie weights and continue to bake until the bottom of the crust is dry and lightly browned, another 10 to 15 minutes. Cool completely.
- Toss the rhubarb with 1/4 cup granulated sugar and the orange zest and juice until well combined. Transfer to the crust and spread to form an even layer. Place the pie on a rimmed baking sheet. Whisk the eggs with the cream, flour and remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar until smooth, and then pour over the rhubarb. Bake until the pie is lightly browned, puffed and no longer wet in the center, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Before serving, lightly dust with confectioners' sugar.

CLASSIC RHUBARB CUSTARD PIE (WITH CRUST RECIPE)
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and sugar, if using. Whisk to blend thoroughly.
- Add the butter, working it into the flour mixture with your fingers or a pastry blender. Some pea-sized pieces of butter should remain intact.
- Stir in 4 tablespoons of ice water. Add more ice water, about 1 teaspoon at a time, until mixture begins to hold together.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and press until a smooth dough has formed. Do not overwork or the crust will be tough.

- Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 400 F. On a lightly floured work surface, or between sheets of lightly floured parchment, roll the dough into a circle about 11-inches in diameter.
- Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate. Fold any excess dough over on itself and crimp the edge as desired.
- In a large bowl, toss together the rhubarb, sugar, flour, nutmeg, and salt.
- In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with milk.
- Add the egg mixture to the rhubarb mixture, stirring until blended.

SIMPLY FANTASTIC RHUBARB CUSTARD PIE
There are several rhubarb custard pies on Zaar but I didn't find any quite like this one. It came from a friend at work and was tried and approved by another co-worker before I finally tried it last night. I think the topping really finishes it off. NOTE: I substituted Splenda for the sugar in the filling and it absolutely could not be detected. (I would have done the same with the topping but DH made the topping for me while I was making the filling.)

- Divide cake batter between the two prepared cake pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cakes have risen and are lightly golden brown, 33 to 38 minutes. Check for doneness after 25 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes should come out clean. Allow cakes to cool for about 10 minutes before removing from the pans. Cool cakes completely, about 40 minutes.
- Whisk 3 eggs, cornstarch, and sugar in a large bowl until well mixed and lemon colored, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
- Heat 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whole milk, and 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to boil.

- Pour egg and cream mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl; discard any chunks.
- Whisk vanilla and salt into the egg and cream mixture until combined. Cover with a layer of plastic wrap pressed against the surface. Chill in refrigerator to form a pastry cream texture, 3 to 4 hours.
- Place chocolate in a large bowl. Heat 1 teaspoon butter and 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream in a saucepan over medium heat until butter is melted. Pour cream mixture over chocolate and whisk until smooth. Set aside until cooled, but still pourable, about 20 minutes.
- Place one cake layer on a plate, flat side up. Spread pastry cream to within 1-inch of the edge of cake. Place second cake layer on top, rounded side up. Press gently to push pastry cream to the edge. Pour chocolate mixture over top of the cake and spread so it drips over the edge.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a clean work surface lightly dusted with flour, roll out pate brisee to an 11-inch round (about 1/8-inch thick). Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate, and trim edges of dough with kitchen shears to a 1/2-inch overhang. Fold edges under, and press to seal using the tines of a fork. Freeze until firm, about 20 minutes.
- Line crust with parchment, leaving an overhang on all sides. Fill completely with pie weights, dried beans, or rice. Bake until bottom is dry, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove weights and parchment. Continue baking until bottom of crust is golden, 7 to 9 minutes more. Let cool.
- In a bowl, toss rhubarb with 1/4 cup sugar. Let stand 10 minutes. In another bowl, whisk together flour, remaining 1 1/4 cup sugar, eggs, butter, and heavy cream until smooth and combined. Pour filling into crust. Scatter rhubarb evenly over top, gently pressing into custard. Bake until puffed and golden in places and slightly wobbly in the center, 50 minutes to 1 hour (tenting with foil if browning too quickly). Transfer to a wire rack; let cool 1 hour. Refrigerate until ready to serve, about 1 hour and up to 1 day.
Tips:
- To ensure a perfectly cooked rhubarb custard pie, it is important to maintain a consistent temperature throughout the baking process. This can be achieved by preheating the oven and maintaining the temperature at 350°F (175°C) for the duration of the bake.
- To prevent the pie crust from becoming soggy, it is important to allow it to cool completely before filling it with the custard. This will help to prevent the crust from absorbing moisture from the custard.
- If you are using frozen rhubarb, be sure to thaw it completely before using it in the pie. This will help to ensure that the rhubarb releases its natural juices and flavors into the pie.
- For a sweeter pie, you can add more sugar to the rhubarb filling. However, be sure to taste the filling before adding more sugar, as the rhubarb itself is naturally sweet.
- To make a gluten-free pie, you can use a gluten-free pie crust mix or make your own gluten-free pie crust.
Conclusion:
Rhubarb custard pie is a delicious and classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy filling and creamy custard, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, give rhubarb custard pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
