To Make the Pate Brisee
Method
Step 1
In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour, salt, and sugar. Add butter, and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal- it should look like sand.
Step 2
Combine water and vodka. With the machine running, add liquid in a slow, steady stream through the feed tube. Run until the dough comes together but don't overwork the dough.
Step 3
Divide dough into two. Flatten and wrap each in plastic. Chill at least an hour.
To Make the Filling and Assemble
Step 1
Meanwhile, macerate strawberries by combining with 1 tablespoon sugar. Leave for 1 hour, tossing occasionally.
Step 2
Sauté rhubarb with a little water until it softens, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer it to a bowl to cool. Cover with lemon juice. Combine all dry ingredients and set aside.
Step 3
Using a slotted spoon, add strawberries into bowl with rhubarb. Add dry ingredients and stir.
Step 4
Preheat oven to 400˚F. Roll out one disc of dough and place into the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Add a pinch of flour to the bottom and then add filling. Chill while making top.
Step 5
Roll out the other disc and cut strips. Make a lattice (see below) and incorporating a few strips of thin rhubarb instead of dough. Decorate edges as you like. Bake for about 45-60 min, until filling is bubbly.
