DECATUR COUNTY – It’s rhubarb season again. I like to cut up and freeze several pints for use throughout the rest of the year. Our favorite thing to make is strawberry rhubarb pie. Rhubarb can be used alone or mixes well with other fruits, although it is actually a vegetable. The long, fleshy stalks are the edible part of the plant. The leaves are poisonous. The stalks contain fiber, vitamin K and calcium. It is a perennial plant that lives for more than two years and can be harvested annually.
Here are some rhubarb recipes you might like to try. If you don’t have any at your house, ask around and hopefully you will be able to locate some.
