Rhubarb and ice cream.... Lovely.

I think that nothing beats rhubarb and cream. I'm salivating at the
thought!

Mary

For me it's rhubarb and custard - especially when made into rhubarb
fool.

I make fool with yogurt - the next best thing to cream :-)

Too idle to make custard ... but custard is best with rhubarb pie.

How do you make fool then ?

James

I know not how others make it but I cut rhubarb into 1" pieces and put
them
into a pan with some honey (no water). Cooking over a low heat until the
rhubarb is soft takes but a few minutes. Then I stir it into cream - or
yogurt.

Bliss.

I make a superb rhubarb crumble (no credit, recipe from one of my fav
cookery books) with orange juice and zest, filling 1/3 cooking apple,
2/3 rhubarb, demerara sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
It is heaven on a plate, served with some mascarpone cheese - i'd say
it would be gorgeous with clotted cream too, but that's hard to find
here.

You spoilt it with adding the cheese
James

Marscapone isn't like cheese, think cream cheese only more substantial. It's
very good.

I just wouldn't want to go to all that trouble, still prefer my way :-)
