Chef's Tips
  • Ensure the 🌶️ ginger and 🌶️ cayenne are distributed evenly throughout the 🍓 rhubarb to avoid hot spots in the pie.
  • Serve with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream or vanilla bean ice cream to balance the spicy notes.
  • Use a light hand when mixing the topping; overworking it will lead to a dense crust rather than a light, crunchy crumble.

Notes

  • The 🌶️ cayenne pepper provides a subtle warmth that complements the natural tartness of the 🍓 rhubarb.
  • Do not skip the 🌾 cornstarch, as the moisture release from the fruit can be significant.
  • If the crust edges brown too quickly, shield them with a thin strip of foil.
