Rhubarb

“I believe rhubarb is the most underrated fruit-that-is-a-vegetable. My local climate is too warm to grow it in the garden, and I feel the absence acutely. If it’s available for you, don’t take it for granted!”

“The ROI on rhubarb is insane. It’s very hard to kill, grows even when neglected, and you get multiple harvests out of one summer. We have made rhubarb infused syrup, rhubarb martinis, rhubarb strawberry crisp, and we are still figuring out how to use all this rhubarb!”

“I've been eating it sliced thin with salt and pepper and it is my new favorite summer snack. Good with fish and pickled stuff if you're still making girl dinner.”

“A lot of it goes in the freezer to extend summer for many months, but that doesn't mean I'm not making cordials and syrups for immediate rhubarb beverage use. And the leftover stewed fruit is so good on yogurt.”

“Any combo of rhubarb + flour + sugar + butter. (Strawberries optional)”

“support local and bake a crumble 👌🏻”
