Another sure sign of spring is rhubarb... More often than not it's relegated to strawberry pies, but its tangy flavor makes it suitable for savory dishes too. Greener stalks tend to be more sour, while ruby red ones can be slightly sweeter.
Here's 7 recipes to make with it this season:
- Persian Rhubarb Stew
- Rhubarb Dessert
- Rhubarb Pineapple Salsa
- Rhubarb Upside Down Cake
- Rhubodka or Rhubarb Syrup
- Chicken with Baked Rhubarb
- Rhubarb Compote
But what about the strawberry rhubarb pie? Strawberries often don't arrive to the market until June, but rhubarb is a fairly reliable staple at opening day in May! Give it try on it's own- it makes a wonderful crisp when sweetened with local honey, and is also great in savory recipes like the stew above.
