RHUBARB AND MUSCAT JELLY



Rhubarb and Muscat Jelly image

Provided by Nigella Lawson : Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 7h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 1/2 to 1-inch lengths
1 2/3 cups superfine sugar, plus more, if needed
1 orange, zested and juiced, plus more juice, if needed
2 cups water
8 leaves gelatin or 2 envelopes granulated gelatin
About 3/4 cup Muscat wine

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Put the rhubarb into a large ovenproof dish. I find a rectangular size measuring 12 by 8 by 2 inches perfect for the job. Sprinkle over the sugar, add the orange juice and zest, and 2 cups of water, and cover, either with lid or with foil. Bake for 1 hour. Take out of oven, remove lid, and let cool.
  • Strain carefully into a large measuring cup. I find this gives about 3 cups. Put the pulp aside (you can freeze it for use in the custard or trifle). If using granulated gelatin, soften it in 1/4 cup of the Muscat, about 5 minutes. Heat the mixture in the top of a double boiler over simmering water until the gelatin has dissolved, about 1 minute, and add to the rhubarb juice. Pour the remaining Muscat into the juice to bring it up to 3 3/4 cups; if not using granulated gelatin, add the Muscat as is to the juice to the required measurement. Taste; you may want some more sugar or a squeeze more orange or, indeed, more Muscat.
  • Lightly oil a 4-cup jelly mold by dabbing a paper towel in some suitably flavorless oil and then rubbing it over the interior of the mold. Soak gelatin leaves in a dish of cold water until softened. Put 2 ladles of rhubarb and Muscat syrup in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Squeeze out the gelatin leaves and whisk into the syrup. When they've dissolved, pour the contents of the pan back into the measuring cup. If you want to make sure everything's well enough blended, you can pour from the cup to the pan and back into the cup again. Pour into the jelly mold and place in the refrigerator to chill and set, about 6 hours or overnight.

RHUBARB JELLY



Rhubarb Jelly image

Rhubarb jelly captures the taste of the spring rhubarb harvest in a jelly for year-round enjoyment.

Provided by Ashley Adamant

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs rhubarb, chopped into 1'' pieces
4 cups water
4 cups rhubarb juice
6 cups sugar
1 box Sure Jel pectin (1.75 ounces), or
6 tbsp Ball Classic Pectin Powder, or
2 pouches liquid pectin (3 oz each)
4 cups rhubarb juice
1/2 cup to 2 cups sugar (or honey/maple)
5 tsp Pomona's Pectin Powder
2 tsp calcium water (comes with pectin)

Steps:

  • Place the chopped rhubarb and water in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a hard boil and then turn the heat down to a simmer.
  • Simmer rhubarb and water for about 20 minutes, until the rhubarb has completely fallen apart.
  • Pour the rhubarb mixture into a jelly bag (or cheesecloth-lined fine mesh strainer). Allow the rhubarb juice to drain for at least 2 hours, or until you've collected 4 cups of juice.
  • Pour the rhubarb juice back into a saucepan and bring it to a boil.
  • For a full sugar recipe, add the pectin and sugar into the boiling juice.
  • If using Pomona's pectin, add the calcium water to the rhubarb juice and then mix the powdered pectin with the sugar separately, then add the sugar to the boiling juice.
  • Regardless of the pectin choice, return the juice/sugar/pectin mixture to a boil and boil hard for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Turn off the heat and then pour the finished rhubarb jelly into prepared jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
  • Store the preserve in the refrigerator (or freezer) for immediate use, or process in a water bath canner for 10 minutes for a shelf-stable rhubarb jelly.

Provided by Kim

Categories     Rhubarb Recipes

Time 2h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 ½ cups finely chopped rhubarb
½ cup white sugar
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 ¾ cups white sugar
3 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
1 ½ cups buttermilk, at room temperature

Steps:

Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice. Place mixture into a heat-safe bowl and place into the refrigerator to cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-cup Bundt® pan.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a small bowl.

Pour in buttermilk and mix until just combined. Add in remaining flour mixture and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Pour half of the batter into the prepared Bundt® pan and smooth into an even layer. Remove rhubarb jam from fridge, and carefully spoon over the batter. Place dollops of remaining batter over the jam, and gently smooth into an even layer; taking care to cover the jam completely.
  • Place pan into preheated oven and bake until a bamboo skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out with just a few moist crumbs, 55 to 60 minutes. Cool cake in pan for 30 minutes before gently running a knife around the edges to loosen. Invert cake onto a wire rack and cool completely.

RHUBARB & CUSTARD JELLY



Rhubarb & custard jelly image

The classic flavour combination takes centre stage in this wobbly pudding with creamy and fruity set layers

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dessert, Dinner

Time 40m

Yield Makes 1 jelly to serve 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 12

a little sunflower oil , for greasing
700g rhubarb , chopped
175g golden caster sugar
6 gelatine leaves
pink food colouring (optional)
350ml whole milk
300ml pot double cream
1 vanilla pod , split lengthways and seeds scraped out
5 gelatine leaves
140g golden caster sugar
4 large egg yolks
2 tbsp custard powder

Steps:

  • Very lightly grease a 1-litre jelly mould with oil, then make the rhubarb layer. Put the rhubarb and caster sugar in a pan with 250ml water, cover with a lid and simmer for 5-8 mins until the rhubarb is really soft, then remove from the heat. Put the gelatine in a small bowl of very cold water to soften.
  • Line a large sieve with muslin or a J-cloth, place over a bowl and pour in the rhubarb liquid, then leave to drip through. Once all the liquid has dripped through, return the juice to the pan over a low heat. If your rhubarb juice isn't very pink, you can add a drop of food colouring. Once soft, remove the gelatine from the water and squeeze out any excess, then add to the warm rhubarb juice, stirring until the gelatine dissolves. Pour half the rhubarb liquid into your jelly mould and put in the fridge to set for 3 hrs. Leave the remaining rhubarb juice at room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, make the custard layer. Put the milk, cream, and vanilla pod and seeds in a pan, heat gently until just simmering, then remove from the heat. Soak the gelatine in a bowl of very cold water. In a large bowl, whisk the sugar, egg yolks and custard powder until smooth and pale. Pour over the warmed milk, whisking to combine. Pour the hot mixture into the pan and heat gently until thickened slightly, then remove from the heat. Remove the gelatine leaves from the water, squeeze out any excess liquid, add to the custard and stir well. Leave to cool.
  • Once the first layer of jelly has set, pour over half the cooled custard layer. Chill for a further 3 hrs.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining jelly, making sure each layer is well set before you add the next. If the jelly starts to set at room temperature, you can reheat it very gently on the hob - just make sure it doesn't boil, as this will stop the gelatine from setting. Once the jelly has had its total setting time, ease the edges away with your fingers, then turn out onto a plate (you may have to give a little jiggle to dislodge the jelly) and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose firm, ripe rhubarb stalks with minimal blemishes. Cut off the leaves and the tough ends before using.
  • Chop the rhubarb into small pieces to ensure even cooking and easier stirring.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven to prevent the jelly from scorching.
  • Cook the rhubarb and sugar mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the rhubarb has softened and the mixture has thickened. This may take 30 minutes or more.
  • To test the jelly for doneness, place a small spoonful on a chilled plate. If the jelly wrinkles when you push your finger through it, it is ready.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. This will help to prevent the jelly from crystallizing.
  • Pour the jelly into sterilized jars and seal tightly. Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to ensure a safe seal.

Conclusion:

Rhubarb jelly is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed on toast, crackers, or pancakes. It is also a great addition to fruit salads, yogurt parfaits, and ice cream sundaes. With its vibrant color and tart flavor, rhubarb jelly is a surefire way to brighten up any meal. So next time you have a bounty of rhubarb, be sure to try your hand at making this classic jelly. You won't be disappointed!
