All August Long: Rhubarb As Well As Porridge

rhubarb together with ginger pudding I baked final year, but I was mistaken. Not alone does rhubarb larn better, it gets easier!

With the few stalks remaining later on the muffins, I tried my manus at a compote. H5N1 quick scan of the mesh had it looking uncomplicated plenty - I didn't rely on a item source, though I did copy Lucy's sprinkle of rosewater 1 time the cooking was over. Wow. That extra fragrance, that extra complexity, lifts rhubarb to a novel plane! I spooned it generously over porridge, carefully rationing it out for each mouthful, savouring every final drib of the sweet-sour syrup.

And straight off that I've mentioned porridge, it deserves a few words of its own. Though I could in all probability brand my ain mix to a greater extent than cheaply, I bought a parcel of multi-grains (oats, wheat, triticale, rye, barley together with rice) every bit an incentive to brand porridge at home. This habit has outlasted the sublime rhubarb compote, together with it has proved an enjoyable together with nourishing agency to complete stray packets of dried fruits together with nuts languishing inward the pantry. Dried strawberries together with maple syrup made a lovely pair, though the accompanying raw cashews failed to brand an impact. I idea that using pomegranate syrup together with pistachios was inspiration from sky but the syrup was genuinely also sour - golden syrup fared better.

There's been a lot of trials together with a trivial error. One thing's certainly - porridge withdraw never live beige or bland again.

Rhubarb compote

Chop your rhubarb into 4-5 cm segments. Deposit them inward a saucepan amongst a scant tablespoon of raw sugar for each stalk. Add a splash of water to assistance the saccharide dissolve. Stir the mixture regularly over medium rut until the saccharide melts, together with the rhubarb softens together with starts to intermission down. (This took me 10-15 minutes for three stalks.) Allow the compote to cool slightly earlier sprinkling over roughly rosewater.
