My favorite way to eat it is as compote over vanilla ice-cream. In a pie with strawberries is also delightful.<br />Thanks for coming to visit me! "I want to announce my presence with authority" is another good one...<br /><br /><a href="http://kmdlifeisgood.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tina @ Life is Good</a><br /><a href="http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/2012/05/post-to-z-road-trip-join-us.html" rel="nofollow">Post A-Z Road trip!</a>Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08925730745204736744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6278664710214185687.post-79857633045306508452012-05-25T21:47:18.981-06:002012-05-25T21:47:18.981-06:00D.G., I never thought to put rhubarb and custard t...D.G., I never thought to put rhubarb and custard together.

I haven't tasted rhubarb in a long time. My mother used to boil it, I think. I remember a jellied consistency. Come to think of it, we never had pie. I have to check on this -- are there any pies in Sweden?Ingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02924736131382149056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6278664710214185687.post-24215163895937416552012-05-25T07:44:55.570-06:002012-05-25T07:44:55.570-06:00I've made rhubarb pie with custard in the fill...I've made rhubarb pie with custard in the filling, AND rhubarb with strawberries.<br /><br />Tart but tasty if sweetened just enough.
