First rhubarb harvest of the year
Topic: rhubarb

First rhubarb harvest of the year.  Same day as last year!  I could have taken some a few days earlier, but I was waiting for an excuse to make fresh rhubarb crisp, and the visit of a friend made this the day.  Sweet crisp fresh rhubarb!

This plant laughs at a late spring. 

I still had rhubarb in the freezer from last year.  Although it doesn't lose much in the freezer, it does lose a little something.  So I made a big batch of rhubarb chutney.  I thawed it first and drained the juice before adding the vinegar.  It made for a great batch of chutney.
