RHUBARB ADDICTION

At the moment, it's rhubarb season and as it doesn't last very long (April 'till middle of June), I recommend you to take advantage of that gorgeous and versatile vegetable as much as possible, before it is too late!

I have already blogged a few times about rhubarb desserts or baked treats made with this luscious plant, so I thought that it would be great if I grouped them all together in one post in order to facilitate your quest for new Spring recipes... At the same time, I decided to add a few links which will lead you to some of the web's most interesting rhubarb-oriented dishes/recipes.

And if you want to learn more about this fabulous "gift of Nature", then I invite you to read what I wrote here.

My rhubarb recipes:
Fluffy Rhubarb & Quark Clafoutis (see recipe)
Rhubarb Cobbler (see recipe)
Rhubarb Five Spice Muffins (see recipe)
Rhubarb Meringue Slices (see recipe)

Rhubarb Salée (see recipe)
Rhubarb Upside-Down Cake/Pudding (see recipe)

Moi aussi, j'adore la rhubarbe! En dessert, en plat, partout tout le temps. Merci les compotes qui me permettent d'en manger toute l'année!

Tiuscha said...

La rhubarbe, sous toutes ses formes, merci ! (mais certains liens ne fonctionnent pas...)

Gattina said...

back to my life in U.S., my neigbor used to generously give me some rhubarb that grew in her backyard. I always remember how gorgeous this veg after cooked... and I think I had commented your clafoutis (2nd photo? hope I'm right...), but never say enough, it is truely beautiful!

Sylvie said...

C'est superbe, mais je ne suis hélas pas fan de rhubarbe... ;o)

Hélène said...

Merci pour cette belle selection, je vais de ce pas jetter un coup d'oeil.

nadine said...

Je n'arrive pas à goûter la rhubarbe, pas moyen de faire le pas mais à force de voir des billets où elle est si bien mise en valeur, je vais peut-être finir par me laisser aller.

Gracianne said...

Non seulement c'est bon, mais en plus c'est si joli a voir la rhubarbe.

Cicero Sings said...

I love rhubarb. My favourite recipe is a rhubary/sour cream pie. Mmmm ... I want one!

Bebop said...

Malheureusement, chez moi, je suis la seule à aimer la rhubarbe ...
du coup je n'en fait pas souvent!
Bises!

Still havent had any this season. Maybein Sweden next week. They love their rhubarb.

Elra said...

Gosh Rosa,
I never tried rhubarb in my life. I just find it unattractive and looks like celery (not that I don't like celery). I am so and totally primitive... I must try this veggy. David Lebovitz was posting an article about rhubarb and I've been meaning to make it (check it out, http://www.davidlebovitz.com/archives/2008/05/red_winepoached.html)
I have to really force myself to grab this veggy when I go to the market. Now that you posting this article and have so many options on how to make them; there is no excuse for me to not trying it.

linda said...

Love the stuff! It was on sale a couple of weeks ago so I bought 2 kg :) Cooked it and froze it in smaller portions :)

La cuisine des 3 soeurs said...

Je ne sais pas combien de recettes de rhubarbe, j'ai vu passer cette semaine. Chez toi, j'hésite entre ton clafoutis et la rhubarbe meringuée.

marion - il en faut peu pour ... said...

je suis fan, alors tu penses qu'un palmarès pareil, ça ne me laisse pas de glace ;)

Hopie said...

Wow, everybody is blogging about rhubarb! I mean, I'm not complaining. I love it, and I'm sure I'll be setting off on my own rhubarb recipes as soon as possible!

guylaine said...

J'adore mais je ne pense pas à en acheter ! bises !

Lannae said...

Oh, you just took me back to a special childhood memory of my Great Aunt Isabelle making a rhubarb pie for me to taste for the 1st time. She served it to me quite warm because I did not want to wait. Her pie instantly became my favorite pie.

Babeth said...

Super collection de recettes!
J'adore les photo en close shot
xoxo

Dominique said...

Merci beaucoup pour tous ces liens, la rhubarbe j'adore sous toutes ses coutures, en tarte en compote, un vrai bonheur !
Bises.

Dana McCauley said...

we're in full rhubarb mode here. Yesterday we made a rhubarb custard tart topped with meringue - pretty freakin' good if I do say so myself.

Tomorrow I'm off to a commercial rhubarb farm to do an interview. I'm looking forward to seeing how it all works!

senga said...

Addict toi aussi, comme c'est curieux !! Je reviens bientôt, je te fais signe... Bises

Botacook said...

J'adore la rhubarbe sous toutes ses formes, mais c'est bientôt la fin de la saison. Heureusement qu'elle va laisser sa place à plein d'autres bonnes choses :)

lydian said...

Mon mari fait un vin de rhubarbe pétillant à se damner qui accompagnerait bien tes jolies recettes!
Bises

Bellini Valli said...

Rhubarb is one of the first signs of Spring and always welcome. Thanks for all the links as well as the delicious recipes:D

mounet said...

si avec tous ces liens , on n'arrive pas a trouver la recette qui va nous plaire c'est qu'il n'y a plus rien à faire pour nous
je vais aller y faire un tour , mais la rhubarbe n'est pas très jolie chez moi , pourtant il pleut assez cette année

Mamina said...

Addict, je le suis aussi, mais monsieur Mamina encore plus.

Tifenn said...

Choueette, belle maman m'en apporte des kilos demain...merci!
