I remember as a child sneaking Rhubarb out of the neighbors garden & hiding behind the shed & chowing down! Heavenly!

All grown up now, I actually wash & cook with it today. Lol! Strawberry/rhubarb pie, rhubarb crisp, bread, muffins, jam......

Brain orgasms galore!!!!!!!!!

I take a saucer,put some sugar in it,and dip the stalks in the sugar and eat it like a stick of candy.I've been doing this for years!

Three years ago my brother started making rhubarb wine.  MMMMM!  He has it refined pretty good  now and it is fantastice.  Now, I am not much of a wine drinker but this stuff is soooo good.  Not too sweet and not too dry.  It is definately a wine to "sip".  Am looking forward to the new batch starting in a couple of weeks.

My Great Grandmother used to make rhubarb wine.  When we were children and visited on Sundays, we were often given a small jelly jar half full.  I can't tell you how it tasted since I hadn't developed much of a palate at that age...but it certainly made us slightly more well-behaved!

My kids growing up loved it in the summer when I would make Popsicle s. The sorbet is great too, alone or for more formal adult dinners, a couple scoops in a dessert bowl with 1/4 cup of champagne. Awesome!


Rhubarb Sorbet Recipe
Prep time: 3 hours
Also makes great popsicles! Just pour mixture into popsicle molds and freeze.

INGREDIENTS
3 1/2 cups of chopped fresh rhubarb (4-5 stalks)
2 1/2 cups of water
1 2/3 cups of sugar
1/4 teaspoon of salt
2 teaspoons of orange zest
2 teaspoons of chopped fresh ginger
2 tablespoons of corn syrup
METHOD
1 Place rhubarb, sugar, water, salt, orange zest, and ginger in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the rhubarb easily falls apart and the sugar has dissolved.
2 Cool for 10 minutes. Working in batches, purée in a blender until smooth. Press through a fine mesh strainer to remove the pulp; discard the pulp. Stir in corn syrup. Cover and refrigerate until totally chilled, several hours or overnight. (Can more quickly chill in the freezer if you check it and stir it every 15 minutes.)
3 Process in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. The sorbet will have a soft texture right out of the ice cream maker. If you would like a firmer consistency, transfer the sorbet to an airtight container and place in freezer for several hours. Once frozen, you may need to let it sit for a few minutes at room temperature to soften before serving.
Yield: Makes about one quart.

They both sound REALLY good!! I'll have to google the wine though. Thanks for the sorbet recipe hearts.. :))

We should have a "Sunday Recipie" thread... haha

oh does the thought of rhubarb bring back some memories....  a couple of stalks of rhubarb and a bowl of sugar for dippin".....  yum.

NOW that I'm all grown up, I discovered Winehaven has an excellent Strawberry Rhubarb wine.   I have a bottle chilling at this very moment.   I have found it pairs well with Sex.

yummy.

It makes a good dessert also! Instead of
making apple crisp with apples put rhubarb
a can of cherry pie filling  in instead
very tasty!

Looks like rhubarb wins over sex hands down!

I'm going to CUB right now!!!!
