Did You Know
Europeans introduced rhubarb first to the New England region in the 1820s where it became a popular ingredient for pastry and pie fillings.
The redder the stalk, the sweeter the flavor.
Because it is so tart, rhubarb always is sweetened and often is mixed with another fruit-usually strawberries-to minimize its acidic tang.
