Add ⅓ cup granulated sugar and stir well.
Let the rhubarb macerate for an hour. All you have to do is let the rhubarb sit on the counter and it will do all the work of releasing its juices.
Pour the rhubarb pieces and juices into a medium pot.
Grind 4 allspice berries in a mortar and pestle and grind to a fine powder. Alternatively, you can put the allspice in a ziploc bag and give them a good whack with a meat mallet.
Add the ground allspice and ⅓ cup water to the rhubarb and set the mixture over medium to medium-high heat.
Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the rhubarb is soft. If the mixture is too thick, you may need to add an additional tablespoon or two of water.
Serve with ice cream, pork, chicken...

' Small birds will land on their backs and eat insects on their

I think everyone is tired of them, except the people who still find them funny.

the foods, exercises and goals you want to achieve are selected.
Though a small contention rises between scientists from time to
time in proclaiming certain items as natural, the overall list is well defined and easy to
understand. The severity of the sting depends on a few things,
including the species of the jellyfish and the sensitivity of the person to its
venom.

we love rhubarb here - and I finally have some planted this year so I will have my own next year (instead of stealing from my mom's garden!)

Great way to enjoy the rhubarb. I like the sound of the allspice in it!

Them Apples, what an awesome history lesson. I love the part about the Rhubarb Express. Thanks!

The English definitely lay claim to discoverin rhubarb, but really it's of Siberian origin, although it was popularised in Britain by the Victorians. I guess that's how it made it's way over The Pond.
Really, it's the north of England that's famous for rhubarb, and Yorkshire in particular.
Most commercially farmed British rhubarb is grown in a small triangle between Wakefield, Leeds and Bradford.
In Victorian times, rhubarb used to be shipped down to London from Yorkshire each morning on a special train - the Rhubarb Express. It was sold at the great London markets of Covent Garden and Spitallfields and exported all over the Empire.
There's a lot of history behind the humble stalk of rhubarb.

Here, here to the rhubarb!!! I LOVE this stuff and grew up with it in northern Indiana. We grew it in our garden and my mom was always finding yummy recipes for it to star in. I should share a couple I have with you.
My family is afraid to try rhubarb. 🙁 They are unwilling guinea pigs . . .er I mean taste testers for this ingredient. I shall make them taste it and they will LIKE it! 🙂

I am newly obsessed with rhubarb! That looks like the perfect topping for some vanilla ice cream!

Thanks for all of your comments. We're getting ready to top our bowls of vanilla ice cream with another heaping spoonful of the compote.
Angie, it sounds as though your husband should talk to Mathilde's husband.

That's one of the things I haven't tried yet. And I saw a bundle of them at the farmer's market, too. Now I wish had had gotten them.

Hey you,
First of all, I left you a blog award at my site....
Second, I have been wanting to cook for Rubarb all summer. It is accessable in OH, but I cannot find it in FL.
