This amazing pie is part of the blue ribbon fair bakeoff in Minnesota by Fay Peterson , here below is a excerpt about this from the website
This Mixed Fruit Pie earned its maker the “best overall pie” honor at last year’s Minnesota State Fair (2014). The judges, a panel of food science professionals, chose the top pie based on appearance/color, texture/internal appearance, and flavor/aroma. In other words, it is all about execution…as in a perfect pie performance. Fancy that!
Fay Peterson did it best with this Blueberry Rhubarb Strawberry Pie.
Fay says this pie crust recipe, handed down from her mother, is more durable and fool-proof than most. She says this comes from using vinegar, egg, and shortening. Our tasters referred to the crust as “flaky yet firm” and “a perfect compliment to the rich, fruity filling.”
