AMISH RHUBARB BARS



Amish Rhubarb Bars image

The recipe is from the Kalona, IA Historical Village Cookbook published in 1971, so it is almost an antique recipe. The contributor, Marilyn Svoboda, calls it Rhubarb Delight. An Amish farm that has a market stall sells these and calls them Rhubarb Dream Bars. My mom calls them Rhubarb Bars. So take your pick of names!

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, ripe rhubarb for the best flavor. Look for stalks that are firm and have a deep red color.
  • Trim the rhubarb stalks by removing the leaves and the tough ends.
  • Cut the rhubarb stalks into small pieces, about 1/2 inch thick.
  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven to make the jam. This will give the jam plenty of room to boil and prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Bring the rhubarb, sugar, and water to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir frequently to prevent the jam from sticking.
  • Reduce the heat to low and simmer the jam for about 30 minutes, or until it has thickened. Stir the jam occasionally to prevent it from sticking.
  • Remove the jam from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract. Let the jam cool slightly before transferring it to jars or containers.
  • Process the jars or containers in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to seal them.
  • Store the jam in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year.

Conclusion:

Amish rhubarb jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed in many ways. It can be spread on toast, used as a topping for pancakes or waffles, or added to yogurt or oatmeal. It can also be used as an ingredient in baked goods, such as pies, tarts, and muffins. Amish rhubarb jam is a great way to preserve the fresh flavor of rhubarb and enjoy it all year long.
