Rhubarb is a tart, vibrant stalk vegetable most often used in sweet dishes. With its signature bright red or pink stems and bold sour flavour, rhubarb is a seasonal favourite in pies, crisps, jams, sauces, and compotes.
Cooked with sugar or paired with fruits like strawberries or apples, rhubarb brings a tangy balance to desserts and baked goods. It can also be used creatively in chutneys or savoury glazes. Only the stalks are edible—leaves should be discarded.
