Best 6 Rhubarb With Berries And Candied Ginger Recipes

RHUBARB WITH BERRIES AND CANDIED GINGER

Steps:

• 1. Wash the rhubarb, trim off the ends of the stalks, then slice them crosswise into 1/2-inch chunks. If the stalks are very thick, halve them lengthwise first. Toss with the sugar, tapioca, orange juice, zest, and cloves. Arrange in an 8 x 10-inch gratin dish and let stand while you preheat the oven to 400°F. Cover with foil and bake until the fruit is tender when pierced with a knife, 35 to 45 minutes.
• 2. Meanwhile, if you're using strawberries, rinse them quickly, then slice thickly. Plunge mulberries briefly into water and remove any stems. When the rhubarb is done, remove it from the oven, scatter the berries over the top, and let stand with a piece of foil placed loosely over the top. The heat of the rhubarb will open the flavor of the berries, cooking them slightly. Serve chilled or at room temperature, garnished with cream and crème fraîche whipped together until billowy, and the candied ginger.

RHUBARB GINGER JAM

Steps:

• Stir rhubarb, sugar, ginger, and lemon juice in a large pot and allow to stand until rhubarb releases its juice, about 20 minutes. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil; cook until thickened, about 15 minutes, stirring often.
• Sterilize the jars, lids, and rings in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the jam into the sterilized jars, filling them to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all).

RHUBARB BUCKLE WITH GINGER CRUMB

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°; butter a 9-inch round baking pan.
• Make the crumb topping: mix together the sugar, flour, and candied ginger in a bowl; stir in the melted butter; put the crumb mixture in the freezer while you mix the cake batter (this chills the crumb so it will not immediately melt into the cake when baked).
• Make the cake: whisk the flour, baking powder, ginger, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
• Using a handheld mixer with beaters or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar together on med-high speed until light and fluffy, 3-5 minutes.
• Add in the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition.
• Stir in the flour mixture in three additions alternating with the buttermilk in two additions, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients and scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
• Gently fold in the rhubarb.
• Spread the batter into the prepared pan, then sprinkle the ginger crumb over the cake.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until lightly golden and firm on top.
• Store--wrapped in plastic wrap, the cake will keep at room temperature for 2-3 days.
