Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place the rhubarb, brown sugar, water, ginger and the vanilla bean in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until the rhubarb has nearly dissolved into a puree, about 35 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Remove the vanilla bean. Use a paring knife to scrape the vanilla seeds from the pod into the rhubarb.

  3. Step 3

    Serve the rhubarb warm or cold as a sauce for ice cream or cake, topped with whipped cream or with stiffly whipped cream folded into it.

Way too much water!

Cooking for MUCH less time, say 10 minutes, and you will retain some perfectly softened fruit with visible signs of rhubarb. 35 minutes is FAR too long for rhubarb.

added strawberries at the end. I think Lemon peel would be another nice addition.
