Rhubarb

Have the seasonal glut again, probably 20 to 40 kilos rapidly turning to wood, as the flowers are now 4 or 5 feet high.
I don't do crumble, anyone got any suggestions?
Rhubarb Champagne will be ignored. ;) ;)

We're off next weekend to raid our friend's rhubarb patch, I do a very lovely rose wine for Mrs Ice & I.

In 2016 I made 3x25 litres of it, everyone said how wonderful it was, must have been...it all went. :o Didn't get around to it last year but doing it this year.

Rhubarb and elder flowers (late in the ferment) make a nice wine.

Personally I can't be arsed. It isn't really a good source of fermentable sugars, just a flavour.

Yeah I know what you mean there.

Grab some elderflowers too and get the freezer space ready.

Quite disappointed not to see a recipe for rhubarb sausages.

"Take some rhubarb, take some porky meat, mix well, add some seasoning, extrude into the skin of your choice."

Will that do?
