Ingredients
4
stalks
rhubarb
1
bean
vanilla
5
tbsp
cane sugar
1 1/2
tbsp
potato starch
Instructions
Wash the rhubarb stalks — the red outer skin gives a nice colour, but we actually recommend to peel the stalks because of the oxalic acid.
Chop rhubarb into slices approx. 1cm thick
Add the pieces to simmering water until they are just about covered
Slice open the vanilla bean and scrape it out
Add the vanilla bean and pulp to the water
Boil the rhubarb until soft
Remove the vanilla bean
Add the potato starch and let compote thicken
Add sugar to taste
Recipe Notes
Our tip:
This rhubarb compote goes perfectly with homemade vanilla ice cream or vanilla custard.
