A delicious tart and sweet combination. Nothing tastes better with vanilla ice cream. Fresh or frozen rhubarb may be used.
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 pound fresh rhubarb, chopped

Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

- Pour filling into pie crust. Dot top with butter, and cover with top crust. Seal edges of top and bottom crust with water.
- Apply yolk to top of pie, using a pastry brush. Sprinkle with sugar. Cut small holes in top to let steam escape.
