I know nothing about rhubarb. I do know that I ate a piece raw and thought to myself "Why am I about to make an entire pie with this stuff in it?". I went ahead with it anyways, because I had bought everything for it. I will admit that I liked the pie, so my doubts about rhubarb were put to rest.
It is not a pretty pie. I cannot for the life of me seal a pie crust or flute the edges. I haven't exactly practiced or looked up the proper way to do. My style is just to wing it and hope that it comes out perfect and huff and puff when it looks like crap.
Huff.
Puff.
