Description

With its cherry-red stalk and bright green leaves, you could not ask for a prettier plant. Because we eat the stalk, rhubarb is actually considered a vegetable—except in New York, where a court declared in 1947 that rhubarb was a fruit. Rhubarb has been used for medical purposes for thousands of years, but this beauty truly belongs on the table. Its anti-inflammatory properties and nutritional profile make it a super food to add to your diet. In this class you will learn the story behind rhubarb, plus some great ways to prepare and serve it—and none of them requires strawberries!
