Two things I like to make are a rhubarb-bbq sauce (tastes like reg. bbq, but with a bit of a tang) and our favorite thing to eat with pork, Rhubarb Chutney:<br /><br />http://www.anoregoncottage.com/2011/06/in-season-easy-rhubarb-barbecue-sauce.html<br /><br />http://www.anoregoncottage.com/2012/06/spicy-rhubarb-chutney.html<br /><br />I also had a TGP about rhubarb and I asked people to leave recipes, so there are a number in the comments (http://www.anoregoncottage.com/2012/06/rhubarb-tuesday-garden-party.html). I've tried Mindy's Rhubarb bread that she mentioned and it is yummy and also was emailed a crisp recipe that I'm going to post again once my rhubarb recovers from all the picking! :-)Jami @ An Oregon Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17667526972866583695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-58579395048988460772012-07-10T09:21:17.101-04:002012-07-10T09:21:17.101-04:00Rhubarb is such a pretty plant.

It was ok but do not like the texture of it. But I love the plant. And it reminds me of old farm house gardens.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01754379649711551718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-37796567320495053142012-07-10T08:48:33.361-04:002012-07-10T08:48:33.361-04:00My favorite is a rhubarb sauce that my mom used to...My favorite is a rhubarb sauce that my mom used to make to pour over vanilla ice cream. She'd mix in some blackberries, or blueberries, or whatever other fruit we may have at the time and it stretched the amount of sauce and the tartness was really good on sweet ice cream. Since my husband does not eat any sweetener... we've not harvested much rhubarb, though we have enough growing to feed the whole neighborhood. I suggested that we sell the plants and grow something we CAN eat, but he doesn't want to move the plants because they mark the edges of the leach field. No wonder they grow so well :)<br /><br />Old New Englanders would grow rhubarb out by the outhouse. Not only did it hide the outhouse somewhat, but is grew like crazy. *** hee hee ***<br /><br />I do still eat some, but not what I used to as a kid. I recently made a cake that called for rhubarb and a box of strawberry jello. It was quite good.

(from Sm...-----<br /><br />Big Crumb Coffeecake with Rhubarb<br /><br />(from Smitten Kitchen)<br /><br />For the rhubarb filling:<br /><br />1/2 pound rhubarb, trimmed (I just guessed the amount of stalks)<br /><br />1/4 cup sugar<br /><br />2 teaspoons cornstarch<br /><br />1/2 teaspoon ground ginger<br /><br /> <br /><br />For the crumbs:<br /><br />1/3 cup dark brown sugar<br /><br />1/3 cup granulated sugar<br /><br />1 teaspoon ground cinnamon<br /><br />1/2 teaspoon ground ginger<br /><br />1/8 teaspoon salt<br /><br />1/2 cup (1 stick or 4 ounces) butter, melted<br /><br />1 3/4 cups cake flour (I was out and used all-purpose and it worked great. You can take out 2 Tbsp. of flour for every cup to make it more like cake flour.)<br /><br /> <br /><br />For the cake:<br /><br />1/3 cup sour cream<br /><br />1 large egg<br /><br />1 large egg yolk<br /><br />2 teaspoons vanilla extract<br /><br />1 cup cake flour (ditto on the all-purpose flour–worked just fine)<br /><br />1/2 cup sugar<br /><br />1/2 teaspoon baking soda<br /><br />1/2 teaspoon baking powder<br /><br />1/4 teaspoon salt<br /><br />6 tablespoons softened butter, cut into 8 pieces.<br /><br /> <br /><br />1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease an 8-inch-square baking pan. For filling, slice rhubarb 1/2 inch thick and toss with sugar, cornstarch and ginger. Set aside.<br /><br /> <br /><br />2. To make crumbs [this step now updated, see comment #150] in a large bowl, whisk sugars, spices and salt into melted butter until smooth. Then, add flour with a spatula or wooden spoon. It will look and feel like a solid dough. Leave it pressed together in the bottom of the bowl and set aside.<br /><br /> <br /><br />3. To prepare cake, in a small bowl, stir together the sour cream, egg, egg yolk and vanilla. Using a mixer fitted with paddle attachment, mix together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add butter and a spoonful of sour cream mixture and mix on medium speed until flour is moistened. Increase speed and beat for 30 seconds. Add remaining sour cream mixture in two batches, beating for 20 seconds after each addition, and scraping down the sides of bowl with a spatula. Scoop out about 1/2 cup batter and set aside.<br /><br /> <br /><br />4. Scrape remaining batter into prepared pan. Spoon rhubarb over batter. Dollop set-aside batter over rhubarb; it does not have to be even.<br /><br /> <br /><br />5. Using your fingers, break topping mixture into big crumbs, about 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch in size. They do not have to be uniform, but make sure most are around that size. Sprinkle over cake. Bake cake until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean of batter (it might be moist from rhubarb), 45 to 55 minutes. Cool completely before serving.RaisingCropsAndBabieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01897154924425187493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-26820068912172518192012-07-10T07:18:24.679-04:002012-07-10T07:18:24.679-04:00My 3 favorite rhubarb recipe.

I usually make rhubarb/strawberry jam as well, but due to a frost my plants didn't produce much. :(<br /><br />Strawberry/Rhubarb Pie:<br />(makes 1 pie)<br /><br />1 1/3 cups sugar<br /><br />1/3 cup flour<br /><br />1/2 tsp. grated orange peel, OPT.<br /><br />2 cups rhubarb, cut-up in 1/2" pieces<br /><br />2 cups strawberries, sliced<br /><br />2 Tbsp. butter<br /><br /> <br /><br />Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare your favorite 2-crust pie pastry (I love my ancient Betty Crocker recipe). Mix sugar, flour, and orange peel (opt). Turn half of strawberries and rhubarb into pastry-lined pie pan. Sprinkle with half of sugar mixture. Repeat with remaining rhubarb, strawberries, and sugar mixture. Dot with butter. Cover with top crust that has slits cut into it (or use a pie bird) and seal edges. Sprinkle with sugar. Cover edge of crust with foil or pie ring to prevent too much browning. Bake until crust is brown and juice begins to bubble through slits in crust, about 40-50 minutes. Let sit until cooled before cutting. Serve with vanilla ice cream for extra-yumminess!<br /><br /><br />*I always have juice spill onto the oven floor and so I put a sheet of foil on the bottom rack to catch the drippings!<br /><br /> <br /><br />------<br /><br /> <br /><br />Rhubarb Dream Bars:<br /><br />(from The Amish Cook: Lovina Eicher in South Bend, IN)<br /><br />Base Layer:<br /><br />1 1/2 cups flour<br /><br />2/3 cup powdered sugar<br /><br />3/4 cup butter<br /><br />Mix the ingredients like a pie crust. Press into a 9x13 cake pan. Bake 10-15 minutes at 350 degrees (until lightly browned and still somewhat soft).<br /><br /> <br /><br />Top Layer:<br /><br />4 eggs<br /><br />2 cups sugar<br /><br />1/2 cup flour<br /><br />1/2 tsp. salt<br /><br />3 cups rhubarb, chopped in small pieces<br /><br />(around 1 cup strawberries, sliced, optional)<br /><br />Mix all together. Pour onto crust. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 min.
