Directions
Rhubarb is a vegetable that looks a lot of celery, except the stalks are twice as thick and they are a vibrant red color. When you get rhubarb, you want to remove and discard the leaves. Rhubarb leaves have high levels of oxalic acid and are considered poisonous. Small doses will make you nauseated but a large dose can be lethal. So always remove rhubarb leaves!
Rhubarb – Always use fresh rhubarb. First clean and prepare your rhubarb. Remove all the leaves because they are inedible. If you are using the green, unforced rhubarb, then peel it. If you are using pinky rhubarb, so the forced one, there’s no need to peel it. Roughly chop the rhubarb on 2 – 3 cm (1-inch) slices.
