I know we’re getting into stone fruit season, but you can still find rhubarb and plenty of citrus at the local farmers markets. Yesterday I actually spotted a bushel of Meyer Lemons! Meyers! They’re those sweeter lemons that are great for lemon bars, lemon tarts… pretty much anything with lemon. So, I grabbed a bunch,… Continue reading Citrus Rhubarb Olive Oil Bundt Cake

Rhubarb Cherry Pork Chops
Last week I talked about how much I love Tartarian cherries. I look forward to them every year, and grab as many as I can until they disappear. It’s five or six weeks of pure bliss. While I use them plenty for sweet desserts, I use them for savory recipes as well. That sweet pop… Continue reading Rhubarb Cherry Pork Chops
Rhubarb Crumb Cake
It’s rhubarb season! There are few seasons I look forward to more than spring. While it’s still quite chilly here on the coast when the calendar turns to spring, it’s still my favorite time of year. This is the time when all my favorite fruits and vegetables start to appear at the farmers markets. Strawberries,… Continue reading Rhubarb Crumb Cake
Rhubarb Cake with Creme Anglaise
I’m a huge fan of desserts! It doesn’t matter if they’re chocolate, vanilla or fruit. I don’t care if they’re cookies, bars or cakes. If there’s a sweet thing on a table I’ll absolutely indulge. While I’ll never turn down chocolate, during the spring and summer I tend to lean more toward fruit. I don’t… Continue reading Rhubarb Cake with Creme Anglaise
Strawberry Rhubarb Cornmeal Upside Down Cake
Strawberries are back in season. Everywhere I look I see baskets overflowing with big, luscious red berries. It’s one of my favorite things about spring. That and bright, colorful garden blooms. With those colors everywhere only one holiday can be right around the corner: Easter. With Easter comes rabbits, chicks, chocolate, and lots and lots… Continue reading Strawberry Rhubarb Cornmeal Upside Down Cake
Raspberry Rhubarb Muffins
If there are two fruits I look forward to all year it’s rhubarb and raspberries. While it’s true that you can get raspberries year-round, they’re at their freshest during the summer months. That’s when they’re sweetest and perfect for fruit salads, bars or cakes. The timing is perfect because it’s also when rhubarb is in… Continue reading Raspberry Rhubarb Muffins
Oven-Roasted Pork with Rhubarbecue Sauce
As you all know I’m a big fan of rhubarb. I wait for it to appear all year and when it finally does I cook up a storm with it. While I enjoy making sweet things like muffins or parfaits, I also adore making savory rhubarb dishes, mainly because no one ever expects them. When… Continue reading Oven-Roasted Pork with Rhubarbecue Sauce
Rhubarb Chutney
My father is not a rhubarb fan. As a matter of fact, he hates it. So you can imagine how excited he was every time rhubarb season came and my mother (who is a fan) would stock up and make her rhubarb/strawberry sauce for me and my sister to snack on. My father would smile,… Continue reading Rhubarb Chutney
Rhubarb Parfait
Rhubarb is back in season! And I couldn’t be happier. I used to have it all the time when I was growing up, thanks to my mom. She’d cook it up on the stove with some strawberries and we’d eat it by the bowlful. I always loved the tart flavor of the rhubarb, but when… Continue reading Rhubarb Parfait
Strawberry Rhubarb Muffins
Sorry for being MIA the past few weeks but I’m still getting used to the schedule (or lack there of) with a toddler and an infant. But since I know rhubarb will be disappearing from the farmer’s markets soon, if it hasn’t already, I wanted to tell you all about these yummy muffins I made.… Continue reading Strawberry Rhubarb Muffins
