I have not done this one in ages, but I just might since we are running low on our homemade apricot jam.
Rhubarb-orange crepes
5 cups rhubarb (chopped)
3/4 cup sugar
2Tbsp flour
2 Tbsp orange juice
1 Tbsp butter
I use frozen juice concentrate -it is our normal staple, and add water if need, but more concentrate makes the taste that much richer and I skip the orange zest, since Tomas does not like it and I usually do not have it - they do not add that to orange concentrates - or probably they do but it is hard to separate.
They call for orange zest for garnish, but I bet nasturtium flowers or pansies would look even better and are also edible - Now you can almost call it a salad !
combine all of these (except flowers) in a saucepan and cook 10 -15 minutes over medium-low heat stirring regularly (constantly if you have time, I rarely do)
Now let it sit while you make your favorite crepes, pancakes or just toast.
If you have crepes you can fill them with fruit and roll up. If you want to be fancy dust with powdered sugar and decorate with flowers or orange zest if you like, I bet mint leaves would do well on anything as well. and with some water it grows like weed here, so it is great and healthy garnish for all deserts before flowers come up.
Actually I have some Sweet Woodruff maybe that will be the right decoration.
