I don't have much success with growing rhubarb in the ground at our place, but I did recently find an article which said it is fine in a giant pot..so I'm off to buy some plants as soon as I can. Rhubarb is absolutely beautiful...and these recipes have given me cravings!!!

eewww, at the local nursery they were having a Rhubarb festival. Some lady offered me rhubarb tea. Without thinking......I said I hate rhubarb. .......lol...She goes, well I have other teas......haha

My Mom loves it.

My DH & I make jams & jellies for the local farm stands. A few years ago we made Rhubarb Jam & sold so little it didn't pay to make it! We make about 1500 - 1800 jars a year, so----.

ok thanks just popped it in the oven, it's smelling mighty good!
;-)

It is too hot to put the oven on. I have to google for microwave rhubarb recipes!

I freeze extra from my patch every year. It works in cake or crisp, or whatever, just as well as fresh. Yummy. :D

Thanks, we can sometimes find frozen rhurbarb,

I made this and added one package of cherry jello to the ingredients. It came out wonderful.

that would be even more flavor...will have to try it.

I cut up and froze fresh rhubarb and when I wanted to make a pie with it, I thawed and drained it (but did not squeeze the liquid out - just let it drain in a colander until it was thawed. Then I made the pie just like I would have if I was using fresh rhubarb, used the same amount and type of thickener, sugar, etc. It came out so watery and soupy - it was a mess and the fruit was so expensive - I was really upset. The only thing I can blame is the thawed out rhubarb.

Does anyone know what I did wrong? Has anyone successfully used frozen rhubarb to make a two-crusted pie? Did it turn out? Please help!
