๐Ÿ“๐ŸŒฟ Rescued Rhubarb Meets Elderflower โ€“ A Perfect Pairing! ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ“

I love experimenting with flavors, especially when it comes to repurposing rescued rhubarb! One of my favorite discoveries (though I probably canโ€™t take credit for it) is how beautifully rhubarb and elderflower cordial come together in preserves.

Itโ€™s so simple โ€” just adjust the ratios of rhubarb, elderflower cordial, and sugar to your taste. Cook it down, testing as you go. Youโ€™ll know itโ€™s ready when you run your finger along the back of cooking spoon and the mixture stays separated on both sides.

Give it a try and let me know what you think! ๐ŸŒฑโœจ

Finally โ€” we would love you to help us grow our new Facebook page at www.facebook.com...
