I make a similar tart, but omit the custard, instead I sprinkle rhubarb with a little sugar mixed with a generous amount of cinnamon. This dessert is great for hot summer days.

Dave, don"t plan anything for tonight, you"ll be up cooking until midnight, then you"ll be eating pie until dawn!

Helena, sometimes you can harvest a couple rhubarb shoots in the late summer ...

Laura, thanks for your kind words, I was not so pleased with the pictures on this one, a tad too dark and unsaturated. But it was late on a week night!

Shu, thanks for your visit and please don�t lose your job over my blog! You�ll find lots of easier dessert recipes, try perhaps the Roasted Pineapples, they can also be used in a custard pie.

Paul, I think this would work with tart/acidic plums. Since you�ll have the same issues of them pissing over the dough and threatening to transform it into a bog, the crumbled biscuits should solve it like they do for rhubarb. Good luck and let me know how it works!

Francois-Xavier, greetings and would this be good with plums? I have some from the garden that need eating up...

Looks yummy, but too hard for a novice like me, plus rubharbs are not easily found here. I am, however, greatly looking forward to making your sour cream apple pie over the weekend!

Enjoyed your blog tremendously, fx. I"m now on page 10 of your back posts. Work in the office has never gone so slowly!

Really interesting. I"ve never seen a rhubarb tart/pie with custard cooked quite like this before.
As always, beautiful photography, and amazing recipe.

Hmm ... yum!

I"m going to have to resist the temptation to go out and harvest some though. Since rhubarb season is over and the plants are supposed to be left alone to give it a chance to regenerate for the follow year. Can"t say I"m not tempted...

Thank you, thank you, and thank you.
Great article
A piece of art.
I will try to find rhubarbs in Bogota, Colombia.
Could it work with mango?

Paul, she is well worth the wait, but don"t let her abuse, each slice is like 5000 calories!

Paulina, perhaps you could find one of the many great fruits that grow in Brazil and replace the rhubarb with it? The dough, custard and meringue could work with any citric-tasting fruits.

I love rhubarb with its citric taste, but is very difficult to find here.
