I used to grow Sweet Cicely, which is a slightly aniseedy herb similar to angelica. if you stew your rhubarb with some sweet cicely leaves, it makes the rhubarb taste sweeter without adding sugar or sweetener. Trouble is, it used to seed itself all over the garden, (I suppose I should have dead headed it) so I didn't bring any with me when we moved house.

I knew nothing about it til José María told me...and my mum's a Yorkshire lass.🙄
 
The Rhubarb Triangle it's called Alan !

My Godmother used to make Rhubarb & Ginger also Rhubarb and Sultana, jam. Scrummy.

My mom used to do R & S crumble cos you use less actual sugar in the fruit part then.

Am gobsmacked anyone adult saying they made their first crumble - it's what you get your kids to make as an intro to proper cookery, when they are not old enough to cope with pastry yet!
 
Yes TW I can remember making that in "Home Economics" ! Cookery in normal crack & I got a "B" grade. :D
 
Don't tell me you missed the Wakefield Festival of Food Drink and Rhubarb?
