• For a Double-Crust Pie: For a conventional pie with a filling that doesn't require precooking, line pie plate with half of the pastry, as directed above, except do not trim pastry or fold under. Omit the prebaking step. Set pie plate aside. Roll out second half of pastry; cover with waxed paper and set aside. To prepare filling, omit the cornstarch and reduce the raspberries to 1 cup. In a large mixing bowl stir together the sugar and, if using fresh rhubarb, 6 tablespoons of all-purpose flour. (If using frozen rhubarb, increase the all-purpose flour to 1/2 cup.)
