Rhubarb and Vanilla Bean Compote
Rhubarb is one of the first signs of spring in Minnesota and it brings me great joy. I absolutely love it. Rhubarb, sugar and a vanilla bean are all you need to make this tasty, versatile compote.
Ingredients
- a few rhubarb stalks leaves removed, stalks washed and chopped
- a few tablespoons of sugar
- 1/2 vanilla bean
Instructions
- Cook the ingredients over low heat for only a few minutes until soft. If you over do it the rhubarb gets mushy. Serve the rhubarb vanilla bean compote over ice cream, as a sauce for desserts like springtime crêpes or angel food cake.
