Rhubarb fans love the intense tart flavor from this pink ingredient. I absolutely adore it because for me, rhubarb marks springtime and I start dreaming of long the summer days ahead!
Did you know that rhubarb is actually a vegetable, not a fruit? I found that out on a recent trip to the United Kingdom where the first rhubarb of the year is harvested by candlelight! They block out all the light in sheds where the rhubarb is grown so that they produce a sweet and tender stalk. It was there that I tasted this Fresh Rhubarb Torte with custard and ice cream.
To make Fresh Rhubarb Torte, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 325 °F. Lightly grease a 9x9 inch baking dish.
Stir together 1 cup of flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and the melted butter. Then pat the mixture into the prepared dish.
In the preheated oven, bake the base for about 25 minutes until it is lightly browned on top.
Remove from the oven and set to one side. Allow the base to cool slightly. Increase oven heat to 350 °F.
Combine 1 1/4 cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, the milk, and beaten egg yolks. Add the rhubarb, Once all the ingredients are fully incorporated, pour the mixture over the base.
Bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove from the oven when the torte has set.
Serve the cake warm with custard and ice cream.
This Fresh Rhubarb Torte is really easy to make. It is rich and delicious. It tastes really great when heated. If you make this torte, please come back let me know how you get on.
Yummy
Man, this Fresh Rhubarb Torte is da bomb! It reminds me of my childhood when my mom made rhubarb pie every spring. Super easy to whip up and the tartness is just on point. Perfect for family gatherings! Seriously, gotta make it again soon for the kids.
This torte is a game changer. So simple yet sooo delish, love rhubarb!
First time making this, wish me luck that I don't screw it up and it will taste as good as it looks in the pictures lol.
Not what I expected but it was good though I think i'll be sticking to desserts like rhubarb strawberry cobbler instead.
Instead of having it in a pan I made it in a muffinform and I love them :)
Jelena you absolute master you did it again! You're helping me stay on the right track for being atleast a little healthy.
Superb tart flavor!
