Rhubarb Syrup

"I made this today after finding some very expensive rhubarb at the store. I got the original recipe from Vegan Dad's site: http://vegandad.blogspot.com/ I added it to my Organic Ginger Ale and wow, what a delicious drink! It is also good added to lemonade or even tea."

directions

  • Combine all ingredients in a large stock pot and bring to bubbling. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes or until rhubarb is cooked down and falling apart.
  • Strain rhubarb through a fine sieve, taking a much liquid as you want (you now have tasty stewed rhubarb).
  • Put the liquid in a stock pot that can hold about 3 times the volume of the liquid. Bring to bubbling over high heat (it will foam up like cray, so use a large pot).
  • Stir rapidly, until foam goes down, then cook and stir for about 5 minutes, until liquid has become glossy. Cool and store in the fridge, adding to drinks as you see fit.

<img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> I was born in northern Ontario in Canada. I am of Irish /Spanish/French Canadian descent. In 2002, myself, my hubby Stu, and our dog Ginger moved to the high desert of New Mexico. I am a Domestic Engineer and a Professional Artist. I enjoy oldies, classical and jazz music. My hubby is a Professional Jazz and Classical Musician. He plays with the Albuquerque Philharmonic Orchestra which is wonderful because I get to see all his concerts and they are free! We are trying our best to live a Green and Sustainable lifestyle which is no easy feat in a desert. I love any cookbook that promotes good health and tasty meals. I enjoy pasta dishes and sweet vegan deserts. I have found that I am very successful in converting conventional recipes to vegan. This has allowed me to enjoy all types of foods that I other wise could not. Some day we would like to relocate to upstate New York and be closer to my family in Canada and my husbands in New York. My DH retires in 9 years, so nothing will stop us from heading home then :-)
