Freeze your
rhubarb now
Rhubarb freezes well with or
without sugar, say food special-
ists at the Ontario Food Council,
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food. Garden -fresh, spring rhu-
barb is at its best through May
until mid-June. To have a taste of
spring all year round dice and
freeze rhubarb in 4 -cup pack-
ages—just enough for a pie in
each. To use the frozen pie packs,
it is not necessary to completely
thaw the fruit—just defrost
enough to separate pieces and
add the top crust.
For freezing choose fresh, crisp
rhubarb. Small to medium stalks,
about 12 to 18 inches long, are
tender, while oversized older
stalks .may be tough and stringy.
The quickest freezing, method is
to freeze rhubarb dry, without
sugar. Wash, dry, and dice in one -
inch pieces. Pack in container§ or
plastic bags, excluding as much .
air as possible, seal and freete.
