Rhubarb Jam (May ‘68)
This sub always inspires me to look through my old recipe cards passed down from my mother. If you are fortunate enough to have your own rhubarb patch, it should be in season soon, so here are a couple recipes for rhubarb jam that you might try. They are basically the same except for the amount of rhubarb and sugar, so I guess you can choose depending on how much rhubarb on hand.
One note of caution: Be sure to remove every bit of the leaves. As much as I fondly remember eating rhubarb as a child, I remember one bad experience and I suspect that I ingested a piece of leaf. My mother was a busy woman and always in a hurry in everything she did. I’m thankful that she took the time to make us homemade treats and pass down the recipes. These bring back joyful memories. ( except for that one time 😆)
Enjoy!
