Said seven-year-old was given the important task of helping her mom put together Shabbat dinner and, wanting to make a splash, she threw in everything that she could find in the fridge. While the hard cooked eggs and olives were a hit, the raw rhubarb, not so much.<\/p>\n<p>Fast-forward a decade or five and said little girl still likes to put rhubarb in whatever dish she can when she has the opportunity&#8230;but never again in a salad.<\/p>\n<p>Before we go any further with our foray into all things rhubarb you need to know one very important fact about the rhubarb plant. As delicious as the stalks are, the roots and leaves are full of oxalic acid (toxic) which will make you sick if you eat them. For this reason, the fresh stuff (March through October is prime fresh rhubarb time) is usually sold with most if not all the leaves and roots cut off. Throughout the winter I make do with the frozen stuff; you just need to defrost it and you\u2019re good to go.<\/p>\n<p>You should look for\u00a0bright red stalks and deep green leaves (if the leaves are still on). Much like celery, you\u2019ll want to remove the fibrous strings. I like using a paring knife or a carrot peeler. Rhubarb is a good source of fiber and contains vitamin C and calcium. If you get one pound of fresh rhubarb you\u2019ll end up with about two cups of cooked rhubarb, so buy according to what you need. One last note: Rhubarb is a TART vegetable that acts like a fruit so just be prepared to add a sizable amount of sugar to whatever recipe you choose.<\/p>\n<p>Cooking Tip: Rhubarb is acidic so I recommend that you don\u2019t use aluminum pots or pans when cooking with it.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Rhubarb Muffins (dairy or pareve)<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ou.org\/life\/files\/Rhubarb-Muffins.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-post-25252 wp-image-25357\" title=\"Rhubarb Muffins\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ou.org\/life\/files\/Rhubarb-Muffins-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ou.org\/life\/files\/Rhubarb-Muffins-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ou.org\/life\/files\/Rhubarb-Muffins.jpg 283w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/strong>Yields 24 muffins<\/p>\n<h4><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Ingredients<\/span>:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><em>1\u00bd cups brown sugar<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00bc cup oil or melted butter<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1 egg<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>2 teaspoon vanilla<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1 cup buttermilk or non-dairy substitute<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1\u00bd cups diced rhubarb<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00bd cups chopped pecans<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>2\u00bd cups flour<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1 teaspoon baking powder<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1 teaspoon baking soda<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00bd teaspoon salt<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>2 teaspoons cinnamon<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Topping<\/span>:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><em>1\/3 cup sugar<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1 Tablespoon brown sugar<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1\u00bd teaspoon cinnamon<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00bd cup chopped pecans or walnuts<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1 Tablespoon melted margarine or butter<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Instructions<\/span>:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>Topping: In a bowl combine the 1\/3 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, nuts, 1\u00bd teaspoons cinnamon and the melted margarine or butter.
