RHUBARB UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE



Rhubarb Upside-Down Cake image

Take advantage of rhubarb season with this easy dessert. Baked and unmolded, this cake resembles a pale pink mosaic atop velvet-crumbed and vanilla-infused cake. The rhubarb, which you'll add in raw, is tangy and tender, firm enough to give you something to chew over. It's an easy half-hour of prep and another hour and change in the oven, ample time for a light supper, anticipation of dessert hanging in the spring air.

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature, more to grease pans
1 1/2 pounds rhubarb, rinsed and sliced into 1/2-inch cubes about 4 cups
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 cups cake flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
Zest of 1 lemon, grated
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1/3 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper. Butter the paper and sides of the pan. Wrap two layers of foil under the pan, and place it on a baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, mix rhubarb, cornstarch and 1/2 cup granulated sugar.
  • Mix the brown sugar and 1/2 stick butter in a pan over medium heat. Whisk until smooth and bubbling, about 2 minutes. Sift together the cake flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Whip 2 sticks butter in a mixer with a paddle attachment for 2 minutes. With your fingers, blend the remaining 1 cup sugar with lemon zest until the mixture is uniform in color. Cream together with the butter at medium-high speed until it is light and fluffy, about 4 minutes, stopping to scrape down the bowl halfway through. Add the vanilla and mix well. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in the sour cream, then the lemon juice. (It's O.K. if the mixture looks curdled.) With the mixer set to low speed, add the flour mixture, 1/4 cup at a time, until well combined. Scrape down the mixer bowl in between the additions.
  • Pour the brown-sugar mixture into the cake pan, then spoon in the rhubarb and its juices. Spoon in the batter so it covers all of the rhubarb. Smooth out the top.
  • Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the top of the cake is firm to touch and a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out without any large, moist crumbs.
  • Place the pan on a wire rack, and cool for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the cake, place a plate on top of the pan and turn it upside-down. Release the cake from the pan while still warm or else it will stick.

Tips:

- To make the rhubarb syrup, use equal parts sugar and water. For a sweeter syrup, use more sugar. For a tarter syrup, use less sugar. - If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a 9-inch springform pan. Just be sure to grease and flour the pan before adding the batter. - Let the cake cool for at least 15 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate. This will help prevent the cake from breaking. - Serve the cake warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream. - You can use any type of rhubarb for this recipe, but fresh rhubarb is best. If you're using frozen rhubarb, be sure to thaw it completely before using. - If you don't have any ginger, you can omit it from the recipe. However, the ginger adds a nice flavor to the cake. - This cake is best served the day it is made, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:
