Rhubarb · common
Victoria
The classic allotment rhubarb that produces thick, green-and-red stems all season long. Vigorous, reliable, and the one that fills pie dishes from April to July. Not the prettiest, but the most productive. Every allotment should have one.
in the kitchen
Rhubarb crumble
Chop the stems, toss with sugar and a squeeze of orange, pile into a dish, top with a rubble of butter, flour, and demerara sugar. Bake until the fruit bubbles and the top is golden. Custard is not optional.
