We planted rhubarb for the first time this year and it is quite large already. Is it true that you are not supposed to harvest it the first year?

Not so much interested in the jam...I love any kind of rhubarb jam, however the other jam eaters in my family don't care for it.

I'm looking more for dessert / snack kinds of recipes if you have 'em.

I made this last weekend with rhubarb from the Farmer's Market and had a slice for breakfast this morning after my run.

I make rhubarb sauce every year! It is wonderful and tastes good on toast, pancakes, waffles, or even frozen yogurt or ice cream!!!!

I'll dig up the recipe even though it is very simple.

This is my absolute favorite pie recipe:

It definitely falls into the "not so healthy" category...but it's gooooooooood

Does anyone have a suggestion on where to buy rhubarb? I can't often find it in the typical grocery stores...and since I've moved back to PA from DC, I lost all my access to Whole Foods where rhubarb always abounds...

Leezle, the sauce sounds awesome! I can't wait to try that!

Boy I miss good fresh rhubarb... had it for years and years at my dad's house back in NY. Always a huge crop. I'd make a pie crust, mix the sugar/spice/flour mix, then go out and harvest some. Chop it up, rinse it, throw it in the pie shell, and into the oven.

Store bought - even farmer's market - just isn't the same... It loses something undefinable.

Simple but good

Use your normal pie crust recipe for a double crust pie (I use whole wheat flour)

For the filling:
Chop up enough rhubarb and fresh strawberries to heap up into the pie, use a ratio of 2:1 rhubarb:strawberries
Use 1 cup of brown sugar and enough flour to coat the fruit
Toss fruit, flour, sugar and some spices if desired; put into bottom crust
sprinkle on some lemon juice and some cut butter (optional)
Put on top crust, brush crust with milk

375 degree oven for approx 1 hour, until filling is bubbly and crust is cooked
