Rhubarb only has a short season, but that just makes it more glorious!
It *does* require sweetening, so how do you measure what's the appropriate amount without killing the delicate, perfumed flavour?
Yumi does have a terrific and doable RHUBARB COMPOTE recipe:
800g trimmed, washed and dried rhubarb, cut into finger-lengths
250 - 300g sugar
1 tsp vanilla (optional)
juice of 4 imperial mandarins
Juice the mandarins and cook down with the sugar until reduced by about half before adding all the rhubarb and stirring continuously for 12 minutes. Store in the fridge for 1 - 2 weeks. Eat on cereal with Greek yoghurt or top with crumble topping!
WE ARE AT SYDNEY WRITERS FESTIVAL 2024! Simon and I (Yumi) will be onstage on Saturday 24 May with Alex Elliot-Howery from Cornersmith and Every. Night. Of. The. Week. cookbook author Lucy Tweed.
