Made for the Goddesses of ZWT-9 - My best friend here in Iceland grows rhubarb in her garden & shares it w/me ea summer .. & .. We had guests for dinner yesterday who love strawberries & rhubarb w/ice cream. Sounded like fate to me, so I tripled this easy-to-fix recipe & will make more. Rhubarb is very popular here & I will use this sauce in many ways. Served atop shortcake, pound cake & pancakes are ideas that quickly come to mind. It would make good smoothies too. For our guests last night, it was generously ladled over vanilla ice cream & garnished w/a choc cookie. Yum! Our lady guest got a gift jar to take home w/her & she was happy. Thx for sharing this recipe w/us. - Edited to Add: New pic & I have hardly begun to explore my options. :-)

Made the sauce as given (although I did serve it over frozen vanilla yogurt) & must say that it's absolutely wonderful in every way! Love the sweet-tartness one gets from the combo of these fruits, & now I have a very nice keeper of a recipe! Many thanks for sharing it! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]
