Servings: 3
Ingredients:
4 cups 1/2-inch pieces fresh rhubarb (from about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in heavy large saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rhubarb is tender, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes. Transfer rhubarb mixture to bowl. Cover and chill until cold, about 2 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
2. Market tip: Look for thin, reddish pink stalks of rhubarb — they'll give the most colorful, tender, and flavorful results. And be sure to avoid using the leaves, which are toxic.
