Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Stewed Rhubarb Delight.
Step 1
Start by gathering your fresh rhubarb, which is the star of this delightful dish. Dice it into manageable pieces and place them into a large stockpot. Add in the sugar, whole cloves, and a splash of lemon juice to brighten the flavors. Now, turn the heat to low and cover the pot. Let it simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb starts to soften and release its juices, which should take about 10 minutes. This is where the magic begins!
Step 2
Once the rhubarb is tender and fragrant, it's time to turn up the heat. Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil, and watch as it transforms into a luscious sauce. Now, sprinkle in the red Jell-O® dessert mix, stirring well until the gelatin dissolves completely. This will add a lovely color and sweetness to your stewed rhubarb.
Step 3
After everything is well combined, remove the pot from the heat and let it cool to room temperature. This is a great time to taste your creation! If you feel it needs a little extra sweetness, drizzle in some warmed honey to your liking. Stir it in and enjoy the delightful balance of tart and sweet flavors.
How to Serve
Serve warm or chilled as a dessert, or use it as a topping for ice cream, yogurt, or pancakes for a delightful treat!
How to Store
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze it for longer storage, just make sure to thaw it in the fridge before serving.
