RHUBARB FLUFF



Rhubarb Fluff image

Absolutely delicious! This old fashioned dessert never fails to please. Being a very very old recipe, one has to keep in mind that todays rhubarb is so much sweeter, you may wish to cut the sugar back to one cup or possibly one and a quarter cups ... depending on just how much sweetness you prefer.

RHUBARB FOOL

Categories     Milk/Cream     Mixer     Dessert     Quick & Easy     Spring     Chill     Rhubarb     Party     Boil     Gourmet     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 pounds rhubarb stalks, chopped (5 1/2 cups)
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons water
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chilled heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a heavy 2 1/2- to 3-quart heavy pot combine rhubarb, sugar, and water and bring to a boil, covered, over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat, and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb begins to break down, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Remove lid and briskly simmer, stirring frequently, until rhubarb is completely broken down into a thick purée and reduced to about 2 cups, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Transfer rhubarb to a bowl and let it cool, then chill, covered, until cold, about 1 hour. DO AHEAD: Purée can be made and refrigerated, covered, up to 2 days ahead.
  • Beat cream in a deep bowl with an electric mixer until it holds soft peaks-for this fool, I like the cream to be slightly beyond the soft peak stage but not quite stiff-and fold it into the rhubarb. Don't feel you have to completely incorporate the cream and the rhubarb into a smooth pink fluff. I like to leave it a little streaky with swirls of rhubarb coursing through the cream.
  • Divide the fool among 6 goblets.

Tips:

- Choose fresh, firm rhubarb stalks with minimal blemishes. - Cut rhubarb into small pieces to ensure even cooking. - Do not overcook rhubarb, as it can become mushy. - Use a large bowl or pot to allow for easy mixing and stirring. - Chill rhubarb fluff for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld. - For a sweeter fluff, use more sugar or add a drizzle of honey. - For a tangier fluff, use less sugar or add a squeeze of lemon juice. - To make rhubarb fluff ahead of time, prepare it up to 2 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator. - Rhubarb fluff can be served as a dessert, snack, or breakfast item. - Rhubarb fluff can be customized with various toppings, such as whipped cream, fresh berries, or granola.
