These simple spring hand-pies are packed to the brim with tangy sweetened rhubarb. Pack them along, cooled, for a picnic or serve them warm with equally tangy buttermilk-lemon granita.

Cook's Note

Scrap dough can be re-rolled once to make additional turnovers or cut into small pieces, brushed with egg wash, sprinkled with sugar, and baked for a pastry snack.
