How to Cook Rhubarb Moos

Rhubarb - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Rheum_rhabarbarum.2006-04-27.uellue.jpgThis is Day Eight of our One Month Grocery Shopping Strike! It’s also SuperBowl today…

So, we are still “cupboard cooking”. When I saw the beautiful lamb loin chops in the freezer, I also noticed our rhubarb we harvested in the summer, chopped & froze. Immediately, I thought of a great, hot dessert fit for this Canadian snow today.

One of my favorite rhubarb recipes is our traditional Kasper Family Rhubarb Moos.  In German Moos (pronounced “mouse”) is a “dried fruit sauce” or dessert stew. It is most delicious, and a real dessert of love. It warms your soul.

Type: Dessert Recipe
Serve With: Heavy cream, if desired or on top of vanilla ice cream
Prep Time: 10 min
Cook Time: 35 min
Yield: 1 large stock pot full

Rhubarb Moos - CookingWithKimberly.comIngredients:

  • 6 cups rhubarb – sliced; either fresh or frozen
  • 12 cups water – or tea
  • 1 cup sugar – then add more if necessary to taste
  • 1/2 tsp butter
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch – mixed thoroughly in 2 tbsp cold water

Instructions:

  1. In a large stock pot, add water and rhubarb and bring to a simmer for 25 minutes.
  2. Add 1 cup sugar and taste to see if the sweetness is good for you. If not, add more sugar 1/4 cup at a time and re-taste.
  3. Mix the cornstarch with cold water thoroughly, and very slowly add it to the simmering mixture and bring it back up to a simmer for 5 more minutes to ensure full thickening power.
  4. Finish with butter off the heat and stir in.
  5. Serve alone, with heavy cream poured in or on top of vanilla ice cream.
