Quick post today. I found rhubard at the Farmer's Market and made rhubarb compote. All you have to do is cut your rhubard, add sugar to taste and cook until your rhubard is very soft and begins to fall apart, about 20 min. Rhubard can be frozen, I did in small Mason jars. When I want to eat rhubard I just microwave it for 50-60 seconds.
Ideas to serve your rhubard:
-Lemon poppyseeds muffins
-Vanilla ice cream
-Yogourt

It really must be the season! I've seen about a dozen posts on various blogs lately with rhubarb recipes. I've never eaten it, but I think I'm getting a message here that I really ought to give it a try. If there isn't any in my produce share Saturday I think I'll buy some to try!
Oh, I totally LOVE rhubarb! I have to find a good source this summer because I refuse to pay good money for it at the store when I know people have it growing in their yards and can't give the stuff away!
Helene- This looks so fantastic. I love the layers, it is so pretty. I bet its just delicious!
So easy! I bet that compote would be good on ice cream...or even ice cream and angel food cake!
There's nothing like the taste of rhubarb and it's time I went and got some before the season fades away. Yours looks great.
Oh Rhubarb, beautiful, vibrant color and delicious!
Wow so easy and serves as a perfect topping! Though I have had only once I have loved it ever since.
I love rhubarb! Can't wait to pick some up from the farmers market.
I'm not familiar with rhubard. Definitely would love to try it :)
bahhh oui oui bien sur je parle francaise!! j'ai passe une annee entiere a paris l'annee dernier ou j'ai attende l'universite catholique de paris. mon pere vient de Montreal, donc tout ma famille parlent francaise--c'est pourquoi j'ai decide de l'apprendre.

Great photos! I love that spoon in the top photo. I haven't liked rhubarb when I've tried it before but should give it another chance.
I love this! Your photos are so beautiful Helen.

How did you freeze thzm fresh or after cooking.
I had fresh rhubarb left over last time and just got wasted.
Next time when I have rhubarb i will make this as my father in law loves made like this .
Ooooh ooohhh! Love those vibrant and cheerful colours! Love rhubarb... never know what out of it. Problem solved! LOL
Lovely idea, presentation and all...
the only rhubarb i've ever eaten has been in combination with strawberries. i need to give it a chance on its own!
The female half of this Duo has never had rhubarb. :( Sounds like it'd be great on those lemon poppyseed muffins though.
This post inspires me to give rhubarb a try in recipes. It looks so simple yet delicious. This is a great post, Helene!
Very quick recipe but a nutritious cum tasty one.

Thanks.
What a pretty parfait! And, your lemon poppy seed muffins look fantastic too.
Bonjour Hélène, la compote et la confiture de rhubarbe sont une belle récompense au printemps.
Tes petites coupes ont l'air vraiment appétissantes.¸
Passe une belle journée.

What a pretty presentation! I made something similar last year and paired it with crisped up pieces of puffed pastry and cinnamon sugar - totally to die for!
