Ingredients:

  • 3 -4 lbs rhubarb , stalks trimmed of leaves
  • 1 vanilla pod, split lengthwise
  • 8 -10 cups water

Directions:

  1. Wash the rhubarb in cold water, trim the ends, and cut into 1/2 inch pieces. (There's no need to peel them or worry about the fibers, as these simply meltdown.).
  2. Place the fruit in a 6 to 8 quart pot and add cold water to cover. Bring to a boil, immediately reduce the heat to a low simmer, and cover, stirring occasionally. When all the chunks have broken down into a uniform soup, about 20 minutes or so, remove it from the heat. Uncover
  3. And allow to cool.
  4. As soon as it is cool enough to handle, ladle into a fine mesh strainer over a spouted collecting bowl. (You may have to do this in batches.) The pulp will become a mass, so stirring it in the strainer with a wooden spoon will allow it to drain better.
  5. Once it's drained, put the pulp and the syrup into separate containers and refrigerate immediately.
  6. Makes 2 plus liters of syrup and 2 lb of pulp.
  7. Will keep for a week refrigerated or you can process it for longer storage. Process jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
  8. Adjust time according to your altitude. You need 1/4 headspace.
