Just found this rhubarb site

[chris]

Mines churning stems out full steam ahead now, so I was wondering what I could do with it... came across this site: http://www.rhubarbinfo.com/recipes

Didn't know you could make bread, muffins, soup etc out of it? I don't see why not, as it is a vegetable after all... I guess it's so commonly known as a crumble filling - I like things slightly different though, so will be trying a few out and reporting back! [site uses bloomin cups mind, grr - no good for metric peeps like moi ]

My favourite rhubarb recipe is on Flumms blog :-

Vegetable Heaven: Jam session

its a Rhubarb and orange jelly and just now I've got some straining in my jelly bag

[chris]

jelly as in jam, or jelly as in what they americans call jello? aka jelly + ice cream!

[Bren In Pots]

Chris its jam but you strain out all the bits so you end up with a pretty looking clear jelly, click the link and have a read.

[chris]

I did but straining overnight etc seems a lot of effort!!!

You can put it in curries & things like that, that's how I'm using up the last bit of last year's.

I've found this one that's something like mine, but I don't put lemon juice in it.

Chrismarks-2 cups of liquid= 1 pint
4 cups flour= 1 lb
2 cups sugar = 1 lb

I am actually reading an American cookery book at the same time as looking on the forum! (It doesn't mention rhubarb though)

Made rhubarb ice cream - sounds strange but it's totally delicious. Just cooked rhubarb, sugar and cream. Gorgeous.

Remembered that last year I made rhubarb eton mess - sharp rhubarb and sweet meringue - works really well.

Bear in mind that American pints/cups etc are not the same as Imperial (only 16fl oz to a pint, instead of 20 Imperial, but their fl oz are a bit bigger than ours as well, so an American pint is more than 16 Imperial fl oz, but less than 20).
