I have used this recipe for years. Now I melt a bit of butter in custard cups and pour the rhubarb filling in them minus the crust. Still absolutely wonderful!

hmmm, what do you do with the 1Tbsp of butter? Do you add it to the custard? Melted?
Maybe I will just skip it.

Question: can you freeze the custard filling before baking?

I bought some rhubarb from the farmers market yesterday… I told the farmer about your mother saying the rhubarb custard pie proved the existence of god and he agreed. :) I made the pie tonight and it was a hit!

i made my first lattice top pie a few years ago – my dad used to do it, and i was always too intimidated to try. but it really is something special. i love how your mom describes it.

My parents grow rhubarb, so I always got a little sick of it when I lived at home (sorry mum, but there’s only so many times a week that I wanted to eat rhubarb…). Now I’m thinking that I might have a go at making my own rhubarb pie. Thank you.

I would like to try this. I have done it before but not quite so carefully, I tend to rush baking -too excited for the end result. Do you grow your own rhubarb? Have you found a good way to reduce the amount of sugar with rhubarb or replace it with something else?

I really like your blog and how you are not a complete expert on everything but you try anyway, it inspires me to try more.
