Woody, Woody, Woody, Dutch apples? Now where do we go with that? I'd suppose they have apples in the Netherlands, but the Dutch apple pie as I know it uses cream to make the pie richer still. I just looked at the Betty Crockett cook book, and it lists a blueberry Dutch pie as well.
I' don't know why I'm fussin' so over you, you didn't share non of that apple pie you're showin' off with ME!

Art, will that variety grow in a Zone 4 area and still be sweet? I'm speaking of Northern Lower Peninsula. Probably... first known from Massatwoshits around 1900. Starts taken to WA, wet side in '64 and here in the early '80s. I have given away a ton of starts and most find it way better than typical.

10gm...Never had gooseberry pie, what's the flavor compare to? We just picked a BIG bag of rhubarb from a friends garden, he has so much he begs people to come get it. We're eating rhubarb pie & cobbler now, and have the first batch of rhubarb freezer jam tucked away. Our friend keeps the seed pods picked off, so he get a long run of it, good stuff. Never heard of the custard, may have to look into that.

I don't like it but I have a couple of plants growing wild on my place. My buddy harvests it and gives it to a lady who lets us hunt Pheasants on her place so I guess actually do like it.

Rhubarb pie. Favorite. Ever since I was a student in Portland and Fred Meyer had rhubarb at 15 cents a pound and it fit the budget.

We always had rhubarb and while my Mom's rhubarb/strawberry pie was the best there must have been 10 cups of sugar used.
Nothing better than hot biscuits, butter and rhubarb for breakfast!!

David Was that stewed rhubarb? Mom used to make that and I'd have a bowl in the morning.

The old homestead had rhubarb growing in the backyard garden and pie made with the ruhbarb was always a favorite of mine.
A local grocery has rhubarb pie and I have mine here!

OK Guys,
I love it, so many ways !
Quick, minor detour, when harvesting the stems, do you gentleman cut or pull the whole stem from the root stock ?
Serious discussions happening all over de Innawebbs !
We've always cut, but it seems, "so they say", that pulling from the root ball/bundle, stimulates extra vigorous growth & more harvests per season !
Any ideas ?
Paul.

I pull them out. Was taught not to cut them as they do grow better if you pull from the bundle.

I used to be a cutter but now I'm a puller - with just a bitotwist.
