  1. You have to try this rhubarb pie. It tastes like CANDY! It is so good.

    Spring Fruit Pudding (The Cook's Oracle, ca.1817)

    2 dozen sticks of rhubarb

    Lemon zest and/or juice from 1 lemon

    1 tsp of cinnamon

    a dash of clove

    a dash of nutmeg

    1 cup of sugar

    2 egg yolks + 1 white

    3 oz of melted butter (that is 0.75 of a standard stick of butter as they sell them in the U.S.)

    1 pie paste to line the bottom of a pie plate

    Wash and chop your rhubarb small. Put it into a stew pan with sugar with the zest or juice of a lemon and your spices (I used the juice as it tends to be less bitter when boiled and I removed the clove and nutmeg to suit my personal taste but you do you). Simmer until the rhubarb has fully released its juices, or about 20-30 minutes. Stir frequently. Remove from the heat and strain through a fine mesh strainer (these used to be made from horse hair!). To the strained rhubarb pulp add melted butter, eggs and lemon zest. Pour into a pie paste. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Allow to cool before enjoying as this allows the filling to set up.
