CHUNKY RHUBARB APPLESAUCE



Chunky Rhubarb Applesauce image

Our backyard was filled with rhubarb when I was growing up in Illinois, and my mom would always add some to her applesauce. We liked ours tart, but you can adjust the sugar to your taste and depending on the tartness of your apples. This applesauce isn't my only memory of rhubarb...I still remember us kids eating it raw - after we sprinkled it liberally with salt!

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB APPLESAUCE



Strawberry-Rhubarb Applesauce image

This is very versatile: serve it as a side dish with pork or chicken, serve over ice cream for dessert, serve at breakfast over pancakes or oatmeal, or just eat as is. You can puree to give it a traditional appearance, but I like it chunky-style and so don't puree it at all.

Categories     Sauces

Time 25m

Yield 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 golden delicious apples (unpeeled)
1 cup chopped rhubarb
1/2 cup sliced strawberry
1/4 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons freshly grated orange rind
1/3 cup orange juice (preferably freshly squeezed)

Steps:

  • Apple peel adds colour and fibre to this dish, so I recommend you don't peel the apples; however, you can certainly do so if you wish.
  • Core apples and chop into chunks; place in a saucepan along with 1 tbsp cold water.
  • Over medium heat, cook, stirring often but not continuously, for 5 minutes.
  • Add remaining ingredients and turn heat up; bring to a boil.
  • Once boiling, turn heat down to a simmer and let cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes or until rhubarb and apples have softened.
  • Taste; you may want to add more sugar depending on the tartness of your rhubarb.
  • You can puree this in the cuisinart, but I prefer to keep it chunky.
  • Refrigerate if not serving right away.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, fresh fruit: The quality of your fruit will greatly impact the taste of your applesauce. Look for strawberries and rhubarb that are brightly colored and free of blemishes. Apples should be firm and crisp.
  • Use a variety of apples: Using a mix of sweet and tart apples will give your applesauce a more complex flavor. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady.
  • Don't overcook the fruit: Applesauce should be cooked until the fruit is soft, but not mushy. Overcooked applesauce will lose its flavor and texture.
  • Add sugar to taste: The amount of sugar you add to your applesauce will depend on the sweetness of your fruit. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Add spices for extra flavor: A pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger can add a warm, cozy flavor to your applesauce. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice for a bit of brightness.

Conclusion:

Strawberry rhubarb applesauce is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up fresh fruit. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a batch of delicious applesauce that the whole family will love.
