A few years ago, I dug up a small rhubarb plant of Dad’s & planted it in 1 of the corners of the house. My Grandma in PA always had rhubarb & made the best rhubarb sauce ever. I though I would try my hand at making some.
Ingredients:
4c rhubarb chopped
3/4c sugar
1/4c water
1/4 cup tapioca granules (option but can be used to help thicken the sauce)
Procedure:
Place all the ingredients in a saucepan; cover, and let simmer over medium heat until all the rhubarb has melted down.
Variations: a friend of mine peels the rhubarb. The sauce comes out green but tastes the same if you want something different. Also, you could add a tsp of cinnamon and a slice of fresh ginger when simmering.
The plant pre-cutting.
The stalks I cut.
The leaves & stalks. Only the stalks are used.
The stalks.
Cut rhubarb.
The ingredients, rhubarb, water, & sugar with a little corn starch for thickening & a dash of cinnamon for flavor.
OOPS!!!! This is the secret ingredient, a Sandusky River Slider. Now all y’all gotta promise to forget that you saw the secret.
About ½ way through cooking.
The finished product.

Re: Rhubarb Sauce
This is some kind of Yankee joke. Everyone knows a rhubarb is a dugout emptying baseball brawl. Gil
