Rhubarb-Strawberry Jam

This jam reverses the usual strawberry-rhubarb ratio and put rhubarb in the driver's seat. Swirl it into Greek yogurt, use it as a topping for vanilla ice cream, or spread it over banana bread. Its gorgeous, pale pink hue would make a perfect Mother's Day gift.

Red Wine-Roasted Rhubarb Compote

By roasting chunks of rhubarb in the oven, without stirring as they cook, we keep the pieces whole, bathed in a fragrant syrup. This compote is perfect on its own, with yogurt or whipped cream, or spooned over cake.

Rhubarb Syrup

Homemade rhubarb syrup is incredibly easy to make and delicious with seltzer or drizzled over ice cream. It's also quite tasty mixed with ginger beer, dark rum, and lime, or used in any type of drink where you want a jolt of spring or summer flavor.

Strawberry Rhubarb Jam

This rosy jam captures all the joy of springtime into what may be the most perfect preserve of the year. This is a low-sugar jam with a loose texture. It's especially nice swirled into plain yogurt or spread over fresh goat cheese on toast.

Strawberry Rhubarb Jam with Honey and Cinnamon

The tart flavors of this jam make it a perfect compliment to sweet breads, cakes, and other desserts. Try it spooned over vanilla ice cream or swirled into rice pudding.

Apple Rhubarb Conserve with Almonds and Apricots

I love the combination of apples and almonds, but any nuts will do in this recipe. Try pecans, walnuts, or hazelnuts. Similarly, you can swap the apricots for the dried fruit of your choice. Try golden raisins, chopped dried mango, or dried pears. This works nicely on a cheese plate or with hearty grain bread.

Rhubarb Shrub

Tart rhubarb practically begs to celebrated in a shrub.

Rhubarb Juice

This is one of those deceptively simple recipes, passed down through friends of friends, that everyone adores. Once chilled, the juice is brisk and refreshing, with just a touch of sweetness.

Rhubarb Rose Water Jam

This is the perfect jam for a spring tea party. The delicate, elegant flavor is a natural match for croissants or tender butter scones. To give it as a gift, pair with a bouquet of fresh wild flowers or a box of your favorite tea.
