For an extra flaky crust, use cold butter or shortening when preparing your pie dough. Blind bake if desired. Adjust the amount of sugar based on the tartness of your rhubarb. Grated lemon zest can be added to the custard to brighten flavor. For a deeper strawberry flavor, consider macerating the strawberries with a tablespoon of sugar for 30 minutes before adding them to the pie.
