Ask Sarah Q: How Do I Cook with Rhubarb? Consumed raw, rhubarb has an intensely tart flavor that's not generally liked. But toss it with sugar and bake it into cake, pie or shortbread, and rhubarb's bitterness fades and becomes quite enjoyable. While it's most commonly used to make sweet treats, rhubarb is delicious in savory dishes, too. Add it to salsa, use it to make chutney or enjoy it as a marinade for meat. To make a sweet sauce, simmer chopped rhubarb in a small saucepan over medium-low heat with water and sugar (for every 3 cups of rhubarb, add 1 tablespoon water and 1/2 cup sugar). After 15 minutes, let the mixture cool. Pour the stewed rhubarb over ice cream or cakes, or use it as a syrup for pancakes or waffles. One bite of that will turn any skeptic into a rhubarb fan!
