Rhubarb Sour Cream Pie

Rhubarb Pie

Rhubarb, you either love it or hate it. For those who are partial to that unique sweet/sour combo that only comes from just the right amount of sugar with the walloping tartness of rhubarb, this is the pie for you. Throw in some sour cream for texture and you have something special.

This is my mother’s recipe, which means that it was almost impossible to get exact measurements. You may need to adjust to get the right taste and texture.
