That means rhubarb season is right around the corner. But after taking inventory of our freezer, I just realized that we have several bags of frozen rhubarb left from last year\u2019s harvest.

However, in 1947 a New York court officially declared rhubarb to legally be considered a fruit. That being said, it is generally used culinarily as a fruit cooked up in pies, jams, cakes, crisps, and cobblers.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"944\" height=\"552\" src=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing.jpg\" alt=\"cutting fresh rhubarb for freezing\" class=\"wp-image-1202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing.jpg 944w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-600x351.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-768x449.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-585x342.jpg 585w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-250x146.jpg 250w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-550x322.jpg 550w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-800x468.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-308x180.jpg 308w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-513x300.jpg 513w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/cutting-fresh-rhubarb-for-freezing-855x500.jpg 855w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 944px) 100vw, 944px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rhubarb is generally easy to grow in sunny areas and is a perennial meaning that it will continue to grow year after year. It is very tart and is usually paired with fruit and sugar in cooking to lessen its distinct sour flavor. As we will discuss below with how to use frozen rhubarb, the possibilities for using rhubarb are extensive.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Freeze Rhubarb&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beauty of rhubarb is that it freezes very well! Another bonus, most recipes work beautifully with either fresh or frozen rhubarb. Freezing it keeps its flavor, nutrients, and allows you to have the goodness that rhubarb offers all year round.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To Freeze rhubarb simply chop in small chunks (roughly 1\/2\u201d). Place in a single layer on a baking sheet. I like to line my baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper to avoid the rhubarb becoming frozen and stuck to the baking sheet.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited.jpg\" alt=\"how to freeze rhubarb\" class=\"wp-image-3086\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-480x270.jpg 480w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-585x329.jpg 585w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-250x141.jpg 250w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-550x309.jpg 550w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-320x180.jpg 320w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-533x300.jpg 533w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/how-to-freeze-rhubarb-edited-889x500.jpg 889w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then place the baking sheet in the freezer for 3-4 hours until the small pieces are all individually frozen. Place rhubarb in a Ziploc bag in the freezer for long term storage. If you skip this step and place the chopped rhubarb directly in a bag in the freezer, you will end up with a frozen clump of rhubarb. While this will still work fine, a clump of frozen rhubarb is more difficult to portion out and work with when the time comes to pull it out of the freezer.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">HOW TO USE FROZEN RHUBARB<\/h2>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Simple Stovetop Rhubarb Sauce or Jam<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can make this simple stovetop sauce or jam by using fresh or frozen rhubarb; either by itself or adding any other fresh or frozen fruit. We like to add any frozen berries we have on hand. Then all you need is something to thicken your sauce. Arrowroot or tapioca starch are our favorite thickeners. If you want a thicker sauce for a jam or pie filling add more thickener. Less thickener will make it runnier and the perfect topping for an ice cream sundae. You could also omit the thickener and just let the sauce thicken on its own when cooking down.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"homemade frozen rhubarb and berry jam\" class=\"wp-image-3087\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-1170x780.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-263x175.jpg 263w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-250x167.jpg 250w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-550x367.jpg 550w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-270x180.jpg 270w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/frozen-rhubarb-berry-jam.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once the rhubarb is soft and your sauce has reached the desired consistency, remove from heat and add a sweetener to get your desired taste.
