"Strawberry and rhubarb are a classic ruby red pairing and make delicious baked goods, jams, and the like. This pie takes this favored spring and summer combination to new worlds with added fresh and ground ginger and a chunky streusel topping. To make a short cut version of this dessert, forgo the bottom pie crust and simply bake off the filling with the crumble topping."

  • Step 1/4

    Add flour, half of the salt, some sugar, and cold, cubed butter to a large bowl. Use hands to coat butter with flour and crumble into almond-sized pieces. Add cold water and continue to mix, adding more cold water as needed to form a shaggy dough. Flour a work surface, turn dough out, and form the dough into a flat disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and let chill for at least 1 hr. in the fridge.

  • Step 2/4

    Preheat the oven to 350°F/175°C. Unwrap chilled dough and lightly flour work surface. Roll out dough into a circle slightly larger than the pie dish. Transfer dough to pie dish and press gently to fit bottom and sides. Trim as needed and fold excess dough under itself at the crust. Crimp the edges as desired. Prick base all over with a fork, then transfer the crust for at least 20 min. into the freezer. Take the pie crust out and cover with greased aluminum foil and fill with pie weights. Blind bake for approx. 20 min., then remove pie weights and continue to bake for 10 min. more, or until the crust just starts to brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
