Rhubarb sorbet

My gardening neighbor has rhubarb.  He plants many things but doesn't cook so I am welcome to take what I want from his plot.  Today I picked a bunch of rhubarb and found a sorbet recipe.

Rhubarb Sorbet

5 cups chopped rhubarb
1 quart water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tblsp lemon juice

combine the chopped rhubarb and water in a pot and bring to a boil.  Simmer for 10 min.  Pour through a strainer and press on the rhubarb to get out all the juice.  Discard the rhubarb remains.  Mix in sugars and lemon juice and chill.  Freeze in ice cream maker.

    Stacey,
    I found your blog while hunting for some new ways of cooking with rhubarb. I've made rhubarb sorbet before and think it is really lovely. The colour so amazing. I have no doubt that this is delightful.

    I also really enjoyed the tour of what growing in your garden, especially the nifty screen idea. Very clever. I will def. be back.
