That pie looks good, but I am in the haters group. Maybe its a regional recipe thing, but any rhubarb I have had was very tart, no noticable sweet.

Thanks mindbender...
Sam, It's just a crumble style, rolled oats, brown sugar, little bit of flour, butter...was wondering if walnuts would enhance it as well, as would do with an apple pie...didn't try it.

For you rhubarb growers, how do you harvest your crop? Selective cutting or clear cut? I've always just thinned the patch thinking it needed some leaves to keep the roots growing. Last year my niece picked my parents old patch and she picked it clean. I thought it might damage the plants but the second growth came back even better than the first. Maybe I've been doing it wrong?

The plant puts out shoots from the crown, so one can harvest as needed or take it all. It'll make more.
I pull the stalks, I don't cut them although cutting is not a problem.

Always make a point to enjoy the better part of a strawberry-rhubarb pie at this time of the year....

Pity...Never considered it an acquired taste thing...rhubarb is a uniquely delectable treat. Yes it is ! See you talking about apple/Rhubarb & have had it & is good too. My all time favourite is from a tiny service station, about 3 hours drive from here. Family run & everything is "homemade". Their strawberry rhubarb pie is to die for !
