Up until now, there were exactly zero rhubarb recipe gracing the pages of this blog. Zero, in the nearly eight (!!!) years I’ve been chattering on about food and drink. I didn’t grow up eating rhubarb so I was never familiar with it. I had some vague idea that it was sour and is supposed to go well with strawberries but that’s pretty much the extent of my knowledge on the topic. Last week, Andrew and I had a special date night out and we went to a wonderful local restaurant Plow & Anchor. The whole meal was truly superb, but the dessert was especially outstanding. As per my usual M.O., I ordered the most interesting sounding thing, which happened to be sweet pea creme brûlée with rhubarb compote. Every bite of it was phenomenal, including the rhubarb compote. Clearly, it is time to expand my rhubarb horizons.
