When I was a kid, I used to eat it in pie whenever we went to a restaurant that had it. When I saw your show, I was on a mission and called every place in San Diego I could think of that might have it. I had to pay 6 bucks a pound, but it was worth it for the memories. When it warms up a bit I am definitely going to plant some. We put ours on vanilla ice cream, by the way. I really want to thank you for reminding me about rhubarb.

I once read that the deeper the color of the rhubarb the better it is. Yours (and some I tried to cook last year unsuccessfully) looked a little pink rather than deep ruby red which is better. Quite an amazing breakfast you cooked up there! Andrea I love rhubarb in a pie.

The oxalic acid in the leaaves can damage the kidneys but you would have to consume about 5kg of the leaves to suffer any ill effects. Wikipedia has a nice article on Rhubarb.

Oh and it reminds me of celery( except for the colour).... that's supposed to be good for arthritis sufferers, I wonder if rhubarb has the same properties. Cheers...and good health!!!

I was a bit skeptical of the rhubarb dish when I saw the picture of this recipe on the website. I remember not liking it as a kid because of the colour and the fact my Mum used to eat it, so thought it must have tasted disgusting. But I must say, looking at the finished product on top of yoghurt and fruit, I could only think one thing... Yummy! I'll be sure to try this one if I am ever able to find rhubarb on the back streets of Tokyo. Heath, Japan. Okay. Okay.

Some middle-eastern cultures use it raw in salads I read somewhere... I think it’s ok to eat it raw, just not the leaves though (raw or cooked) because of the oxalic acid.

I have a huge Rhubarb plant in my backyard. I always chop it down in the early summer and freeze it. Works great for a quick pie. Now I think I will try your recipe. That looked so good.
