  2. Prepare the pie crust ingredients: flour, salt, cold butter, and ice water.
  3. Combine rhubarb, strawberries, and sugar in a large bowl.
  4. Prepare the pie crust by mixing flour and salt, cutting in cold butter until coarse crumbs form, and gradually adding ice water until the dough just comes together. Divide the dough in half, flatten into discs, wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  6. Roll out one disc of dough and line a 9-inch pie plate.
  7. Pour the fruit filling into the crust.
  8. Roll out the second disc of dough and place it over the filling as a top crust, or cut into strips for a lattice top. Crimp the edges to seal. Cut vents in the top crust if using a full crust.
  9. Bake for 20 minutes at 400°F (200°C), then reduce heat to 375°F (190°C) and bake for another 30-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, tent it with foil.
  10. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
