3. Topping a Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
When it comes to topping a strawberry pie, there is nothing like a great crust. You may choose to simply top the pie with a regular circular crust that covers the entire pie.
This is great, just make sure that you cut some holes in it so that steam can escape. You can be creative in the design of these holes if you wish. Another option is to create a lattice top. This is really quite simple to do. You will just cut your top crust into strips and then weave the strips over the top of the pie. This will create a lot of little windows for the steam to escape from. The lattice top also helps to thicken up the filling.
If you think that your filling is going to be too runny, try using a lattice top instead of a regular full top crust.
