Would you call it sweet, or would you call it sour? Would you use it in a beverage and bars, cheesecakes and chutneys, sauces and syrups? It is the focus of the WDSE Cooks’ newest special, “R” is for Rhubarb, featuring a wide variety of recipes focusing on this very hardy plant. Watch the premiere of “R” is for Rhubarb on Saturday, August 6 and in addition to seeing some great new recipes, you will see some familiar faces.
North Shore cooks include Paulette Anholm of Grand Marais, making wonderful Sticky Rhubarb Muffins; Chelsea Lueck, owner of the Gunflint Mercantile and resident of Grand Marais, shared her recipe for Rhubarb Syrup; and the family of Maple Grove’s Cathy Peterson stopped by to cook her delicious Rhubarb Dream Bars on their way to their summer place in Grand Marais.
“R” is for Rhubarb not only features these three cooks and their recipes, but 17 more.
