Notes

๐Ÿ’ก For the best texture, use equal parts strawberries and rhubarb by weight. If your rhubarb stalks are thick and tough, peel the outer layer before chopping for a more tender result.
๐ŸงŠ No need to thaw frozen fruit โ€” just toss frozen rhubarb or strawberries directly into the sugar mixture and add an extra 5 to 10 minutes of baking time.
๐Ÿ‹ A splash of lemon juice (about 1 teaspoon) added to the fruit mixture brightens the flavor beautifully whenever you have a lemon on hand.
