"Rhubarb loves cool places, even Siberia and Alaska! To winter-weary gardeners, rhubarb is especially appreciated because it's one of the first edibles to appear in the spring garden.
In the kitchen, rhubarb adds a zippy signature to pies and tarts that only rhubarb can do. When combined with strawberries, raspberries, apples, and other fruits, the flavor only gets better. Rhubarb also makes a terrific sauce for chicken, venison, halibut and salmon. Adding diced rhubarb to muffins and biscuit recipes makes them sing with flavor without making the batter runny. Rhubarb, like apples, hold moisture well in recipes. In a little bit, I'll share some rhubarb cake recipes, rhubarb jam recipes, rhubarb muffin recipes--heck, you get the idea."
