on the previous video [mein uni] they suggest you freeze rhubarb in freezer bags pressing all the air before sealing the bag then date it, stays good up to 1 year. or you can use freezable containers. also when chopped can freeze on trays with grease proof paper then bag them up. another tip is chop them to the recipe you be using so maybe chop some 1/2 inch and some 1/4 inch etc. i just followed n cooked a mixture of gordon ramsey and jamie oliver, with gordon shredding 2 apples with skin on and chop 2 more apples again skin on as he says its where the flavour is in the skin cut the rhubarb 1/2 inch or smaller, added frozen mix berries to the sugarpot on the hob, bring to boil and simmer with lid on for abot 10 minutes. also add 1/2 lemon juice and zest of a lemon. then followed jamies crumble top but only made 1/2 amount and about a 3rd of butter-see both videos for better idea, but i suddest using about twice as much fruit if doing a large shallow glass backing dish. i cooked in oven 200c/189fan for 30-35 minutes.
If you have an existing plant which is growing and producing good stalk and leaves, you can use a long knife and cut it in half while in the ground. Use a shovel to dig out the other half with a root ball of about 1 ft. Plant the new rhubarb and it will grow perfectly. I did this with mine and now I have 2 huge plants.
No bagging it for freezing? You didn't mention anything about freezer bags... like you just throw that container in the freezer, I just want to be sure if it's supposed to go in freezer bags or not.
@@scotts595 just wash under cold water, dry and chop to the recipe size, 1/2 and 1/4 inch etc then use proper freezing bags, get all the air out before sealing the bag or you can use proper freezing containers.
I just harvested rhubarb for the first time. I made a pie that came out runny but delicious, and I froze the rest. thanks for the good advice.
Add a little flower to it to tighten up the rhubarb and juices.

Hi, and thanks for sharing. Can you tell me how to take, and plant, a rhubarb cutting please?

How long can you keep rhubarb in the freezer?
After a year it will show signs of freezer burn but still good for jam. I have some in the freezer for over 2 years and still tastes great!
@@acreagelife9644 mein university say up to 1 year
Why not plant in the ground, and not in the wine barrels? Your stalks would make a great pie. 🇨🇦👍

Kyle Hamm I’ve watched other videos- see you need to place in a freezer bag. No blanching needed.

You Should get at least three harvest every year.
You should Never harvest rhubarb the first year you plant it.
