Hi Jill, so pleased you have shown the best and only way to cook rhubarb. Baked, not boiled... oh, and that cake, it looks sooo good.

I guess we wait another week for the apple recipe!

Thanks Terry.

A few years ago, an elderly and now deceased Leslie Manorism trimmed the leaves from rhubarb and absentmindedly put them in the fridge. A few days later, he decided to cook up the spinach leaves. They tasted odd (???) but he finished them off.

Six weeks in hospital on a drip until the lining of his intestines grew back. Didn’t eat much rhubarb after that….

Yikes! Please trim off and discard leaves (as mentioned above), everybody. I would hate to lose a subscriber!
