For the best flavor, use fresh, in-season rhubarb.
Make sure the butter is very cold when making the crust for a flaky texture.
Do not overbake the meringue, as it can become tough and dry.
If you don't have rhubarb, feel free to substitute with other fruits like raspberries or strawberries.
You can add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the rhubarb filling for enhanced flavor.
