This was a great recipe for a classic strawberry rhubarb torte. The crust was flaky and the filling was sweet and tart.

The torte was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some more moisture to the batter next time.

This torte was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think I'll try making it again with less sugar next time.
