Rhubarb And Blueberry Compote Food

RHUBARB AND BLUEBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Combine rhubarb, sugar, blueberries, vanilla extract, and cinnamon stick in a pot. Add enough water to barely cover the rhubarb. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb is soft and broken down, 30 to 40 minutes. Discard cinnamon stick.
• Cool compote in the refrigerator until thickened, about 30 minutes.

RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• Combine the rhubarb, sugar, honey, butter and cinnamon in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and pierce once or twice to allow steam to escape. Microwave until the rhubarb is tender, about 6 minutes. Carefully remove the plastic wrap and stir.
• Meanwhile, break the shredded wheat into smaller pieces in a bowl. Dust with confectioners' sugar and cinnamon.
• Spoon the rhubarb compote into bowls, top with ice cream and sprinkle with the shredded wheat.

CREPES WITH BLUEBERRY STUFFING AND RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs and milk together in a bowl. Whisk in the salt, sugar, and flour. Set aside for 30 minutes. Melt about 1/2-teaspoon butter in a nonstick 8 to 10-inch skillet over medium heat. When it foams, pour or ladle in about 2 tablespoons of batter. Lift and swirl the pan so the batter coats the bottom. Set pan on the burner and cook just until set and the underside is lightly browned. Using a spatula or your fingers, flip and cook until the other side is lightly browned. Transfer to a plate and continue with remaining batter.
• Blueberry Stuffing: In a bowl, gently fold together the blueberries, maple sugar and sour cream.
• Rhubarb Compote: To make the compote, place the rhubarb, orange juice concentrate, sugar, and cornstarch in a saucepan and cook until the fruit falls apart and the mixture thickens.
• To serve, place the crepes on a platter and schmear with marmalade. Place a spoonful of the blueberry filling down the center and roll up the crepe. Repeat with remaining crepes. Top off with some rhubarb compote and mint.

Steps:

• Fold in 9 ounces fresh (or thawed frozen) raspberries. Let stand until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes. Serve, drizzled with heavy cream, if desired.

RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• This is prepared in a double boiler. Put a few inches of water in the bottom part of the pot and bring to gentle boil.
• In top of double boiler over direct heat, bring sugar and water to boil. When the mixture is boiling, place the pot over the gently simmering water in bottom of double boiler.
• Add the chopped rhubarb and orange rind to the sugar water mixture, stir.
• Cover and cook, without stirring, for 15 to 20 minutes or until rhubarb is tender. The pieces will remain whole!
• Turn off heat; allow the rhubarb to cool in the pan over hot water. Discard orange rind.
• Enjoy!
• I like to serve this warm or cold, either way it is delicious!
• Serve as is or, just before serving, stir in 1 cup (250 mL) sliced strawberries, cubed mango or pineapple tidbits, good to serve over ice cream, frozen yogurt or a slice of plain cake.
