RubytheSugarDragonSlayer Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Looking for your help and experience! To support my W30, I joined a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Group and I get my first delivery today. One of the items in this week's box is RUBARB. I have never used it before and every recipe I look up pairs it with sugar. I'm also going to get to try Pok Choi and Lamb's Quarter - I think I found stuff for those. Looking for any advice on what to do with rubarb that keeps things on plan! Thanks! Ruby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlaccini Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 You could chop up and freeze it for after you whole 30. I made a relish once - that used dates & apple juice as a sweetener - it was still slightly bitter (as rhubarb is) but it was still quite good.

Administrators ladyshanny Posted June 4, 2015 Administrators Share Posted June 4, 2015 You could try lacto-fermenting it? http://www.culturesforhealth.com/lacto-fermented-rhubarb-chutney (the recipe calls for a whey starter which would not be compliant but you don't actually need that, there is enough bacteria on the surface of the veggies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeGA"gardener" Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Rhubarb can be treated like celery Take a vegetable pleeler and run it over the top to remove the heavy strings rinse Chop into l inch pieces roast 425*15min with radishes carrots fennel turnip and s p red onion slices if you'd like with a generous oil sprinkle Or you could still add it with strawberries and crushed pineapple make a chutney with pistachios no sugar just water 1 cup cinnamon reduce to half should thicken or you could add tsp arrowroot to water first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubytheSugarDragonSlayer Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Great suggestions All, thanks so much!! I'll try something this weekend and report back to you. I did try searching for rhubarb and didn't find anything - probably because I mis-spelled it! It is so great to have support like this here - very much appreciated!
