Description
This tangy-sweet rhubarb sauce is made with just two ingredients and ready in minutes. Perfect as a topping for desserts, breakfasts, or even savory dishes!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb rhubarb (fresh, chopped)
- 2/3 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
Instructions
- Place the chopped rhubarb in a medium saucepan (choose a larger pot than you think you’ll need).
- Put the pot on low heat, add the sugar, and stir frequently.
- Cook for a few minutes until the rhubarb breaks down into a sauce and the sugar dissolves.
- Allow the sauce to cool slightly, then blend until smooth using an immersion blender or countertop blender.
- Use immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 days. Can also be frozen for longer storage.
Notes
You may add a squeeze of lemon or orange juice at the start of cooking to add brightness. Sweetness can be adjusted to taste. The sauce thickens as it cools.
