Though I wouldn't rule out the possibility that there's a pecan pie without corn syrup in it, I've yet to see one. Perhaps you could pull up a maple syrup pie on the web and introduce pecans into it like in a pecan pie. The flavor would be a bit different, but it might suffice. There's a good sounding maple syrup pie in the issue of Cook's Country that the NLS read as one of their magazine of the month selections last year that might be good to check out if you're a member of BARD or have an NLS account. As for rhubarb, I've run into it in the frozen section of at least one of the local grocery store chains.

I tried making a pecan pie substituting pecans for the coconut in a pie which is basically custard. It was not successful in that the pecans did not taste like pecans but just had texture. I suspect if I had roasted them the pie would have been better. Everybody had seconds but still, it was not what I wanted. We ground the pecans as my husband grew up with ground pecans in his pie and loved it. The long way of getting to my question, I know but here it is. Does anybody know of a pecan pie recipe which does not call for corn syrup? I hope I can find one because this is one of the pies slated for Thanksgiving. Does anybody know where I can get frozen rhubarb? Again, this is for Thanksgiving when rhubarb is not fresh.
