Ingredients
- 1 bunch fresh rhubarb
Instructions
- Pick your rhubarb. (Or pick up a bunch from the farmer's market or store.)
- Discard the leaves if the stalks have leaves.
- Wash well and trim any rough ends. Slice into thin pieces.
- Place into a zip top freezer bag and press flat to remove as much air as possible and to spread the rhubarb out in one even layer. Seal.
- Place bag onto a small baking sheet and freeze for at least 4 hours.
- Remove the baking sheet and store the bag flat or upright. Measure out frozen rhubarb in any recipe you like.
Notes
- Store in the freezer for up to 6-12 months.
- Use in recipes like Blueberry Rhubarb Cobbler or Strawberry Rhubarb Chia Jam.
