Rhubarb is one of spring's lovely gifts, yet I've never had the pleasure of trying it - until now that is. I've been seeing it at the farmers market for years and am always intrigued by its beauty but unsure of how to treat it. Read more Have mostly heard of it mixed with strawberries into a pie. Fellow GR member WynneBaer shared a rhubarb slideshow with me and one of the recipes included inspired me to create this compote. See less

My goodness ... this brings back wonderful memories of my grandmother's rhubarb patch in Wyoming. She was a terrific cook and rhubarb was one of the things she really knew how to prepare! My sisters and I luv rhubarb pie and all things tart! Great post. Thanks!
