Rhubarb Pie

Ingredients

  • 2 cupfuls rhubarb, cut in small pieces
  • 1 egg
  • 4 tablespoonfuls flour
  • 1 cupful sugar
  • Salt
  • Lemon rind

Directions

Mix the sugar, salt, lemon rind, and flour; beat the egg. Add the rhubarb and flour mixture to the egg. Turn into an earthenware dish or a granite pan, and cover with pastry as directed above. Bake until the rhubarb is tender and the crust is brown, i.e. at 425 degrees F., 35 to 45 minutes.

Rhubarb contains such a large percentage of moisture that it is well to use but one crust.
