All about rhubarb > Savouring Rhubarb
Be daring: rhubarb and strawberries are always a wise combination; you have probably also tried it with mint, but how about toasted fennel seeds?
The acidic note of finely diced rhubarb is a perfect match for turbot roasted with new onions - finish it with a touch of cream, white wine and freshly ground black Pepper
Peel the rhubarb, cut into pieces; poach in sugar syrup until cooked; put through the blender; add a drizzle of lemon juice and some chopped lemon balm; garnish with a few spoonfuls of frozen yogurt
Cook rhubarb with 150 g sugar; separate two eggs; weigh out a weight equal to the eggs of flour, melted butter and sugar; beat the egg yolks with the sugar until pale; alternately add in the flour and butter; mix in the cooled sliced rhubarb and the egg whites, beaten stiff; bake in a moderate oven
You can flavor rhubarb with vanilla, accompany it with unwhipped crème fraîche as they do in northern countries, or flavour it with ginger, like the English and Asians
Rhubarb tart
Bake blind a tart shell; place in it 300 g blanched sliced rhubarb; pour over top a mixture of 100 g sugar, 3 eggs, 100 g crème fraîche and 1 tbsp. flour; bake for 30 minutes. This is the Altatian version.
In Belgium, the pastry and rhubarb are baked for 15 minutes, then topped with Italian meringue and returned to the oven until done.
