Notes
- Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce - Add equal amounts of rhubarb and strawberries with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice as well as sugar and water.
- If the sauce is a bit to thick, you can add a little bit more water.
- Cooked Rhubarb Sauce should not be left out at room temperature for longer than two hours as bacteria can start growing if left out too long.
- Start with a small amount of sugar and add more to taste, as the rhubarb will become sweeter as it cooks.
- Gently smash the rhubarb rather than blending or puréeing, as this will give a richer texture and flavor.
- If you prefer a brighter red color in your sauce, add some food coloring at the end of cooking time while still warm, not boiling.
- If you want a sweeter sauce, add more sugar when cooking
- To prevent Rhubarb Sauce from burning while cooking over medium heat, remember to stir regularly.
- For added convenience cook extra portions and freeze for later use.
- Make sure to use fresh, ripe rhubarb for the best flavor and texture in your sauce.
