Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds rhubarb
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed, or maple syrup
1 teaspoon minute tapioca
juice and long strands of zest of 1 small orange
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
a handful to a few pints strawberries, mulberries, or blackberries
cream and crème fraîche
4 slices candied ginger, cut into thin strips, for garnish

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.

I made this recipe in a slow cooker and it turned out great. I just cooked it on low for 6 hours.

I'm allergic to strawberries, so I used raspberries instead. It was still very good!

I added a bit of extra sugar to the recipe and it was still delicious. I think it would be great with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

I was skeptical about the candied ginger, but it turned out to be the perfect addition. It added a subtle sweetness and a bit of texture that really elevated the dish.

This recipe is a delightful harmony of flavors! The tartness of the rhubarb, the sweetness of the berries, and the warmth of the candied ginger create a symphony in my mouth. I'll definitely make it again!
