Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white whole wheat or whole wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
• 1/2 cup (4 tablespoons) cold vegetable shortening
• 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) cold vodka
• 1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) cold water, plus extra as needed
• 1 - 1 1/2 pints strawberries, hulled and cut into 1/4-inch thick slices (2 1/2 cups)
• 2 - 3 stalks rhubarb, diced (1/2-inch to 1-inch pieces, equal to 2 cups)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/2 cup quick-cooking tapioca, finely ground
• 2 disks dough from whole wheat crust
• up to 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, for rolling out the crust

1. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, salt and sugar until everything is thoroughly combined.
2. Add the butter and shortening and cut the mixture together using a pastry cutter until it forms small pea-size crumbs coated in flour.
3. Pour the vodka evenly over the dry ingredients, a few tablespoons at a time, using a rubber spatula to press the dough together.
4. Similarly, add the water and continue to press the dough together to form a large ball.
5. The dough should be fairly wet and sticky; if for some reason it seems particularly dry, add a little extra ice water a tablespoon at a time until everything comes together easily.
6. (Be careful to work the dough as little as possible; otherwise the crust may be tough.)
7. Divide the dough into two equal balls, press each into a disk, wrap each in plastic and refrigerate for at least an hour or up to 2 days before rolling out.
8. The recipe makes enough dough for one 9-inch double crust.
