I've seen a recipe for Orange Rhubarb Butter on Food In Jars and I was going to make that. But my computer was "out of commission" so I couldn't get to the recipe. What's a girl to do? I made up my own! The end product is sweet with a little tang. If you do try this recipe, will you please be so kind and come back to let me know what you think? Thank you.
Rhubarb-Apple-Ginger Butter
Ingredients:
- 3 cups chopped rhubarb
- 1 cup chopped apple
- A little less than 1/4 cup finely minced ginger
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup orange juice
Instructions:
- Mix everything in a medium saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Lower the heat to low and simmer for about an hour. The end product looks somewhat like apple sauce.
- Immediately ladle hot butter into canning jars and process jars according to canning instrustions. It will make about 2 pints. I did not can this batch, I just put them in air-tight containers and store them in the fridge.

I've never had rhubarb in my life! Growing up, I never had veges outside of corn, green beans, and black eyed peas - literally! So, now I'm so blessed to have married JP who is willing to try most anything. What does this end product taste like? Keep in mind I've never had rhubarb pie :O)
I want some rhubarb! I'm going to MI in a few weeks and I'm going to stuff my suitcase full of that stuff!
I LOVE it in any shape, way or form.
Your recipe sounds delish. I will have to add it to my list!
I have never had rhubarb in my life either!!! I grew up having only corn and geen beans!!! Thank God for a girlfriend whos Mother cooked a lots of vegs. But never rhubarb.... I have never seen any at the farmers market either. I don't think it grows in the south, does it??
XO, Fern
Hmm. I've never used rhubarb for anything other than a pie. Sound interesting.
The last time I bought rhubarb, I had to tell the checkout girl what it was. She said she had never seen it before. : )
How absolutely WONDERFUL! Thanks so much for sharing!
Woof! Woof! It's very interesting. Ginger??? Oh! what happened to your weekly menu? Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
Now that does sound interesting! I've yet to try rhubabrb, either. And I've only ever heard of rhubarb/strawberry pie. I'm guessing that rhubarb is grown mainly in the north?!!
