Even though rhubarb is generally considered a fruit, it is actually a vegetable. Only its thick, celery-like stalks are edible. Rhubarb is a good source of potassium, and supplies vitamins A, C, and calcium.
5 stalks | rhubarb, cut into 1.5 cm pieces | 500 g | |
2 tbsp | sugar | 26 g | |
2 tbsp | water | 30 mL |
This recipe calls for a minimum amount of sugar. Add more if you wish to compensate for rhubarb's intense tartness.
The compote can be kept up to 7 days in the refrigerator, or up to 3 months in the freezer.
