Our 1st Rhurbarb harvest!
Andrew gathered some juicy rhubarb stems at the start of the week and Mamma G, who also has 2 slightly older plants in her garden, did the same. The stems were mixed together and the Gault's had their first Rhubarb tart during the week (they both had custard - I don't like it, mad I know). So hurrah another new experience and an enjoyable one at that!

That looks delicious, and I'd have mine with custard as well!
ReplyDeleteJoe, my plot neighbour, gave me a few sticks yesterday as mine need a couple more weeks or so. Flighty xx
I love rhubarb! I'm surprised you have a harvest yet as ours are just starting to get leaves again.
ReplyDeleteI do miss rhubarb. Always grew it in our garden when I was a kid. Rhubarb crumble, or strawberry and rhubarb pie, with the requisite custard of course! :P Your rhubarb tart looks absolutely lovely!
ReplyDeleteI don't do custard either Carrie - vile stuff! Never understood what people see in it! Lauran x
ReplyDeleteCVF, have you ever had strawberry rhubarb preserves? I made them one year as xmas gifts and they were a huge hit.
ReplyDeleteMy rhubarb will be a couple of weeks yet. I don't like custard either.
ReplyDeleteWhat is it with people who don't like custard? Someone will say they don't like toast next!

Oh yum! We have a little rhubarb in our garden but I thought it was too early to pick. can I pick it? Can I, can I? ash x
ReplyDeleteI love rhubarb - with COLD custard!!!!!
ReplyDeletethats looks great. I have rhubarb in the garden and it is ready for picking. I think I now know what I am doing tomorrow. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteHi Carrie, you have saved my pudding, believe it or not, we are doing well with one plant on the lottie - come and admire my lovely rhubarb, and my tiny PSB - and I picked the rhubarb and started stewing it, then decided it might not be ripe and I might poison the kids, so thanks to your lovely advice, I know we are in season!
ReplyDeleteHope you are doing ok now, really missing you around the lottie.
