Rhubarb Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil over medium heat, and stir in the rhubarb; simmer for 2 minutes to blanch. Drain in a colander set in the sink, and let cool.
• Stir together the cooled rhubarb, apple, green onions, lime juice, honey, and jalapeno pepper until thoroughly combined.

Steps:

• Stir rhubarb into a large pot of boiling water and cook for 10 seconds. Quickly drain rhubarb and rinse with cold water until cool; transfer rhubarb to a large bowl.
• Place red onion, green, red, and yellow bell peppers, jalapeno pepper, and cilantro into a food processor and pulse 3 or 4 times to finely chop; transfer pepper mixture to bowl with rhubarb. Stir in roma tomatoes.
• Dissolve brown sugar in Key lime juice in a bowl; lightly stir lime juice mixture into rhubarb mixture. Sprinkle salsa with salt, garlic powder, and black pepper and stir salsa again. Refrigerate at least 3 hours to blend flavors.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the parsley, capers, gherkins, garlic, smooth mustard and grainy mustard. Whisk to blend, then add the vinegar, lemon juice and olive oil and combine well. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper, if needed.
• Put the rhubarb on a flat surface. Use a sharp knife to cut the stalks into 3/4 to 1-inch thick "rounds". Heat a large skillet, over medium heat, and add the canola oil. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, lower the heat and add the rhubarb. Stir to coat the pieces with the oil. Season with salt and add the honey. Stir to blend. Cook for another minute, until the pieces soften slightly. Immediately transfer the rhubarb to the bowl with the salsa. Toss to blend and refrigerate until ready to use.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500°F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Pulse chile, garlic, and white parts of scallions in a food processor until finely chopped. With machine running, drizzle in soy sauce, then olive oil; process until emulsion forms. Transfer sauce to a bowl.
• Place chicken thighs, skin side up, on a work surface and slash each crosswise at 3/4" intervals down to the bone. Season lightly with salt. Place on prepared baking sheet and brush with sauce. Bake until skin is crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 165°F, 20-25 minutes. Broil on high for an additonal 2-3 minutes for crisper skin, if desired. Let rest for 5-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss rhubarb, next 5 ingredients, and green parts of scallions in a medium bowl to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper and let stand for at least 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
• Serve chicken with rhubarb salsa alongside.

Steps:

• To soften the shallots, boil in water for around 5 minutes. Drain once ready. Place the Rhubarb in the large pan with 150ml of the malt vinegar, shallots (drained), cayenne, cloves, salt and black pepper (ground). Bring this slowly to the boil with a few stirs, then reduce the heat and simmer gently for around an hour. after this hour is up place your jars in boiling water in the large pan and keep at a boil until needed.
• Remove the cloves from the mixture with a fork and throw away. then you can puree the mixture in a food processor. Return the puree into a clean pan, mix in the sugar and the remaining vinegar and brandy, bring back to the boil, slowly. Stir regularly to dissolve all the sugar, this is very important. Stir in the Turmeric, mustard and ginger. Reduce the heat and simmer gently for about 30 minutes until lovely and thick, it may take longer or even less, just keep patient and stay with it. It needs to remain a consistency that is easily poured, bare this in mind.
• Remove from the heat once ready and allow to cool slightly. Spoon into the hot jars and seal. Place back in the water and boil for 10 - 15 minutes. This is important if it is not going to be used straight away or quickly. Especially if being made for gifts.
• Is great with cold meats or in luxury sandwiches with thick wholemeal bread. My Dad who grows his own rhubarb asked me to make something with his excess, (only so much rhubarb crumble we could eat) My grandma used to make this sauce with me years ago, but i have added the spices and brandy. Before it was too sweet for meats but too vinegary for puddings, however you do not have to use a whole teaspoon of cayenne pepper if you would prefer it to be slightly milder. This can be difficult to make if you are not patient, but is really worth the wait and work. Nothing beats a homemade Sauce.
